Termite Control Services
Sherrill Pest Control has been providing termite control services to homeowners, realtors, commercial clients and builders in south central Tennessee since 1965.
In the United States, termites cost home and business owners approximately 5 billion dollars annually. Termite damage is more common than damage caused by storms, fires and earthquakes, and the costs of termite damage are rarely covered by homeowner’s insurance.
In Tennessee, it’s not a question of if termites will target a structure or not; it’s a question of when. Our climate and terrain are well-suited to termites and no structure is immune to termite damage.

Termite Inspections
You can’t assume your home is termite-free just because you’ve never seen them — they usually swarm only once or twice a year and you might miss it!
Sherrill Pest Control provides a thorough inspection that identifies not only signs of termite activity but areas that may be conducive toward termite activity as well.
Termite VS. Ant Comparison
Some of the things we look for include:
- Mud tubes built for traveling above ground
- Damaged or hollow-sounding wood
- Pinholes in drywall or wallpaper
- Small piles of sawdust
- Piles of small wings
- Other specific termite indicators
Should we find activity, we’ll detail the visible evidence and work with you to provide the best solution to eliminate the colonies and provide continuous protection for your property.

Termite Extermination
At Sherrill Pest Control, we are committed to environmentally responsible and effective treatment methods. That is why we use the revolutionary Sentricon® Termite Colony Elimination System with Always Active™.
Why Sentricon?
- only termite protection proven to eliminate the termite colony attacking your home
- only termite service to ever win the Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Award
- eliminates the colony, while being non-disruptive to your home or business
- no disruption of your home (no termiticide, odor or drilling of tile or interior areas)
How Does Sentricon Work?
Your Sherrill Pest Control Service Professional will install Sentricon® Termite Colony Elimination System with Always Active™ stations (with bait in each station) in the soil around your home or business. This new, Always Active™ technology, provides termite protection for your property 24/7, 365 days a year. As soon as termites find the Sentricon station, they will begin feeding. The Recruit HD bait, containing an IGR (insect growth regulator), is ingested by the workers and then carried back to the colony to be shared–stopping the molting process so they can’t grow. As termites continue to feed on the bait, the bait matrix spreads throughout the colony and the whole colony dies.
Even after the colony has been eliminated, the bait matrix and your Sherrill Pest Control Service Professional continue to guard your property against the invasion of any new termite colonies. You can rest assure that your home and family are being protected around the clock.
Remember, The Sentricon® Termite Colony Elimination System with Always Active™ is only as good as the company providing the service. Call Sherrill Pest Control for termite control services today!
