As a stay-at-home mother running a small business from home, I’ve mastered the art of multitasking. Between managing client emails, making sure my kids finish their homework, and keeping our golden retriever, Milo, from wreaking havoc, I rarely have time to notice the little things. So, when I first saw faint lines of sawdust along the baseboards of my home office, I brushed it off.
Weeks passed, and I started hearing faint clicking noises in the walls. My husband insisted it was just the house settling. Even when tiny, discarded wings started showing up near the windowsill, I didn’t want to believe we had a problem. It wasn’t until Milo began aggressively digging at one of the living room walls, whimpering as if he’d found a buried treasure, that I realized something was wrong.
Milo’s frantic clawing exposed what I had been avoiding—soft, crumbling wood where solid drywall should have been. I finally had to admit it: we had termites.
Finding a Safe and Effective Solution
My first instinct was to call an exterminator, but I hesitated. I’ve always been careful about the products I use in my home, choosing non-toxic cleaners and natural remedies whenever possible. The thought of industrial-strength pesticides filling the air my children and dog breathe made me anxious.
Determined to find a natural termite control company, I started researching companies that offered environmentally friendly pest control. That’s when I came across Natural Science Exterminating, an Orange County-based company specializing in natural and effective termite treatment.
The Natural Science Exterminating Approach
Unlike conventional exterminators who rely on harsh chemicals, Natural Science Exterminating uses eco-friendly treatments that are just as effective without the risk to your home or family. One of their primary treatments includes borate-based solutions, which penetrate deep into the wood, eliminating termites while remaining harmless to pets and children. They also use orange oil treatments, a powerful natural extract that kills termites on contact and leaves behind a pleasant citrus scent instead of toxic fumes.
Beyond extermination, the team at Natural Science Exterminating takes a holistic approach to termite control. They don’t just get rid of the problem—they help prevent it from happening again. Their specialists reinforced our home with preventative treatments designed to keep termites from returning. Even better, they provide in-house carpentry services to repair the damage, saving you from the headache of hiring another contractor.
Their care for their clients, tidiness, and efficacy are all well attested to in their online testimonials. Take a look:
