MightyMite Termite Services

We have our house inspected for termites every few years in order to avoid major repairs or expenses such as tenting. We selected MIGHTYMITE Termite Services because they are ‘Diamond Rated’ and because they have outstanding Unilocal reviews.
Dave S., the inspector, came at the promised time. He took his time to inspect the entire house inside and outside. Even parts of the attic, which is insulated and somewhat hard to access, was included in his work. He was highly professional and took his time to ensure that he did not miss any potential termite infestation. Dave S. found a minor termite infestation in a doorjamb, recommended a specific treatment and provided a fair estimate of the cost involved. In addition he provided an 8 page detailed report of his findings and took time to explain his report.
David R., the service provider, also came at the promised time, he even sent an email the day before the service to confirm our appointment. He was courteous, neat, and professional and knew exactly which area to treat. The treatment included drilling of tiny holes and foaming the area. He took time to explain the process and the treatment.
We are very satisfied with the overall quality, cost of their service as well as their warranty policy. We will definitely use them again and recommend them to our friends. MIDHTYMITE Termite Services should be your provider of choice as well. Five Gold Stars — as good as it gets!

Bill Sullivan called to confirm our appointment as well as to offer to come earlier if it was preferred. He arrived exactly on time, was caught up on all the information relayed by the dispatcher, and did a comprehensive inspection for termites and any other wood-​destroying organisms. He checked the premises, the attic and crawl space. He laid out a tarp and wore boot covers with great respect for cleanliness in our home. I highly recommend this company and Bill for anybody needing reports for property. Bill is an excellent representative. Wish everyone were so considerate and professional. Thank you! And we will call for any other pest control needs!

We had some type of infestation problem in our back awning and I called MightMite to have them come check it out.
Dealing with them on the phone was great, they were very professional and scheduled something at the end of the week. I got not 1 but 2 email reminders which was fantastic! I wish more companies did that. No more worrying if you or they got the time and date wrong.
Bill came out to take a look at the issue and was quick to point out exactly what it was. He also did a full house inspection which was more than I asked for! Did I mention that he called before to see if he could come earlier which was perfect for me. He was very knowledgeable and friendly.
I am going to end up trying to take care of the problem myself, but it was great working with MightyMite and I know that if something more serious comes up in the future they will be the first place I call.

Just some background. I’ve sold Real Estate for 30 years and have dealt with Termite Companies for all of the those years. I have to say that I am very happy with MIGHTYMITE TERMITE SERVICES and especially their crew lead, Erick Aguilar. He’s been out to my home two times now and he is prompt, well educated in his field, thorough in his inspections and takes the time to show you, the client, his findings. He enjoys his work and it shows. He takes pride in what he does. I will be requesting him again for my annual inspection. Very professional and reliable.

Inspection technician was on time, courteous, knowledgeable, clean, professional, thorough, and didn’t try to sell me anything. He found no termite problems, and this company does its inspections for free. I got the report electronically the next day. It is impossible to do better!

I was having ants invasion in my house and Mighty Mite was the first one to call me back and send Todd to evaluate the situation. Todd was the man! He came to my house three times in less than a month to make sure we would eliminate all the ants. I am still not sure if the ants will ever come back, but if they do I know who to call. Todd!!!

We discovered termites over our kitchen sink in November. Their excrement was being pushed out in two different ares… and they even pushed out a couple of white worker termites in the process… Yuk!
I really thought we would have to tent the house… and that is what two of the three firms we had out told us we had to do! But Mighty Might, after a thorough inspection of all crawl space and attic areas, and outside, told us that there was another option, one that they recommended, to inject the areas with expanding insecticide foam (specific for termites) in the multiple areas that they discovered (and showed to me) during their inspection. In addition, their thorough inspection also identified boring beetles under our house. They could be treated using «orange oil». If we had gone with the other firms we would have tented but that would not have killed the beetles, because they did not even go under that part of the house in their inspections! And the beetles take 5 day tenting to kill not the 3 days for termites, not to mention more $$$. All good but what about price? Mighty Might was the least expensive! We are very happy not to have had to fumigate and move out. This was a simple and affordable solution for us. We have a 2 yr guarantee. We recommend them highly!

We had a wonderful experience with Mighty Mite. We had an ant infestation over Thanksgiving so I called a bunch of companies and left messages figuring whomever calls me first, gets the job. Mighty Mite called first thing in the morning on Monday and got their inspector/​technician Todd out the same day. Todd was great, he quickly gave me a quote and got right to work. By the next day, there were no more ants!
We then went ahead and had them check for Termites. Again, they sent someone else out right away who spent about an hour going around, under and over the house. Bill gave us a quote right away and scheduled Chris C. to do the treatment within the same week. We had been putting off doing any termite work because a previous inspector said we would need to tent the house but we have dogs and the thought of those chemicals getting all over our clothes and furniture did not sit well. Bill recommended treating just the spots where he saw evidence of dry wood termites which meant that we did not have to move out of the house and it is guaranteed for 2 years. Win-​win!
All the of the inspectors and technicians that they sent to us were very professional and awesome. I highly recommend Mighty Mite!

I’ve been really happy with MightyMite. In fact, I think they’re the only ones (I got 4 other bids) who didn’t over sell. All of my neighbors have tented this year and we didn’t have to. We’re two years out from our treatment and I’ve just extended my warranty for another two years.

Excellent Service. Bill Sullivan came by earlier today after we found a flying termite wandering around the house earlier this week. Not only was he prompt, he also told us that he wasn’t able to find any evidence of termites, and didn’t try to upsell us on any additional services. Great people to work with!

I didn’t end up using this group. I found the sales tactics to be overkill. They seemed to know what they were doing, but tried to sell me on services that a couple of other outfits deemed unecessarry. They also tried to upsell me to other busines lines they have for things that really did not seem necessarry. They kept calling every other day for a month trying to get me to sign up for a maintenance service. Just felt like they prey on fear of termites and tried to stick it to me through a well thought out, but uncomfortable sales cycle. Got the work done that was needed from a smaller reputable outfit for 20% of what they were trying to sell me on.

MIghty Mite was one of three companies we called when we discovered termites in March. All three companies inspected and found the same problem areas, but Mighty Mite offered the same services for a more reasonable price. They were efficient, professional and clean/​neat throughout the process. Fumigation was not an option, so they spot treated inside areas and the perimeter of our home. The interior treatment consists of drilling tiny holes in affected areas and injecting orange oil or foam into the wood. This was done in our crawl space and attic as well. Exterior areas were treated by drilling holes into the cement to get to ground termites. They do not treat anything that is not attached to the house, i.e. fencing. The whole process took under 3 hours for a crew of 3.
The warranty process is simple– call them if you notice any termite activity and they will come out to inspect and treat. And you have to call annually to schedule an inspection for the length of your warranty.
We recently discovered termite activity and called for service. It took about 3 weeks to get an appointment– a bit longer than I expected. But David took care of the problem area; he was professional, neat, friendly and informative. Thank you! And as with the inspection/​estimate process, they send a follow up report via email within a couple of days.
Seeing termites made me panic, but all three companies reassured me that termites move pretty slowly, so although we saw evidence of termites, there was no substantial damage requiring major construction.

After discovering that we had termites in our living room, we were not pleased. We had heard about the various options for getting rid of termites without having to tent the whole house. So we were interested in a solution that did not require us to move out of the house for a few days. The initial inspection with mighty mite was really easy and efficient. We were able to schedule treatment in the following week. That was very good news as we had a local problem and did not want it to spread through the whole house. Chris and Sean were just great in implementing the treatment. They really respected our house and did not create any mess at all. A job well done!

Not impressed. Called recently to have them come out and measure a home for tenting. I could see evidence in the garage, but not the house. Was going to tent the house anyway. I didn’t need to pay for an inspection. #1. «We don’t do a lot of that». Is what I was told. The impression I got was they wanted to sell me «spot» treatments and at a MUCH higher price then for tenting the whole hose and garage I was still asking them to come out when I told them that I was shopping around and I had already gotten one price and told them what it was. #2. «Oh we can’t beat that, no reason for me to come out». is what I was told. They didn’t know how big the house or garage was, or whether it was one story or two. They really had no way to determine whether they could beat the price or not. Apparently it just wasn’t enough money for them to do anything. They do a lot of advertising, everywhere. They talk a lot of hype about different options because frankly having house tented to be treated is an inconvenience and intimidating. It’s effective though we are talking about killing bugs here.
There are plenty of termite companies around. Many of them are giving a 3 year guarantee, not a 2 year warranty. Not many of them are dancing around the «Orange Oil» treatment using a lot of hype about saving the environment and being environmentally friendly. The only good termite is a dead one and i want to kill as many of them as I can for as little money as possible.

Bottom Line Up Front: Super efficient, professional, and affordable! They did a thorough inspection, described the problem in detail, and did exactly what they promised — BOOM! Done son.
So we were referred to MightyMite by my friend, whose best friend works for MightyMite. His name is David and he is a termite exterminator extraordinaire. Who is we? My wife’s parent’s and their termite-​infested home, to be precise, in a leafy residential area of Fremont. We called MightyMites in February when we saw evidence of termites in the garage. David said no problem and came all the way from the South South Bay to do the inspection. On a weekend!
He inspected the 40+ year old house (which the in-​laws had owned for 25+ years) from top to bottom. He identified more than two different types of termites (above ground and subterranean is all I could understand) and said he was able to deal with the subterranean ones — and gave us a thorough explanation of what the control measures would be and what we could expect, along with a very reasonable cost estimate ($ 2k) after talking to his headquarters. David’s knowledge and friendliness was great, that and the fact that he crawled under the house like a ninja cat, impressed me a lot. The in laws and wife agreed to the Termite Extermination Plan, and we shook on it.
One of David’s fellow termite control workers, whose name I forget, came out a few minutes before the agreed time — awesome, I love punctuality. He makes sure he’s at the right house and tells us what he needs (a water hose and signed documents) and gets right to work, putting on his jumpsuit. He heads underneath the house and sprays the anti-​termite juice, lays out special waterproof tarp, and generally makes things squared away. He then carefully walks around the house, and drills holes, and sprays the outside of the house. He’s done by mid-​afternoon and answers all our questions, and gives us his card in case termites come back, to finish the job if necessary — now that’s service!
It’s clear David and his team take an enormous amount of pride in their work and it really shows. It is worth just calling them to get an inspection to know what pests are (or aren’t) in your house, right? Anyways, they are just a call away and I highly recommend MightyMite!

I hadn’t had my house check for termites in 15 years, and although I had solved a small infestation a few years ago, I knew I had to call the pros when I found more in my garage studs. On the day of the check, I got a call that Joh was available early, which worked out great for me. John got there at the same time I did and he got right to work. He confirmed the two sightings I had found and checked the rest of the house without finding any more.
The next day (!) Erick and his crew showed up right on time. I had to move a lot of material out of the garage, and in the process found three more infestations that John had missed (they had been completely obscured by equipment, so there was no way he could have found them). The guys treated all locations and cleaned up afterword.
I was very happy with the whole process. My only word of caution– they do tell you to make all areas as accessible as possible, and this is very important! They can’t inspect what they can’t get to.
Additionally In my case, about ¹⁄₅ of my houses’ foundation couldn’t be inspected because it had been built over a concrete patio.; that was news to me. You’d have to be the size of a young child to fit, and even then you might get stuck.

This is about the 3^rd or 4^th time I’ve had MightMite come to my house and I’ve haven’t had a bad experience with them yet. David is the bomb, I had a consultation scheduled at 3 and he arrived just around that time despite all the traffic he had to fight from Berkeley to San Jose.
David remembered exactly what areas of my house he treated over a year ago —
I’m sure he has tons of customers around the Bay, so that’s very impressive memory. I showed him the external site where there may have been activity and without hesitation he treated and sealed it up. It was no charge for a touch up from a repeat customer within 2 years.
I can’t say enough good stuff about MightyMite and David. The next time I ever need to pay for treatment again I’d gladly call up these guys without needing to do price research first. I’m confident I’d get excellent reliable work and customer service, that’s definitely worth paying what ever they cost.

The moment you realize those darn termites have invaded your home sucks! We startes noticing these long red bugs with wings in one of the bedrooms and with a quick google search, learned that they are drywood termites.
MightyMites was the first company I contacted after browsing Unilocal.Appointment making was simple and I was scheduled in a few days time for a home inspection. I also made one additional inspection with another company to compare prices and services.
When the MightyMite inspector arrived, he was prompt and also wore shoe covers in my home (love the fact that they respect the owners like that). He spent about an hour going through the whole house from top to bottom. Some areas werent accessable due to my own fault but whatever was accessible, was looked at thoroughly. He was very friendly and informative going above and beyond termite inspecting. It felt like the kind of inspection you would get when purchasing a home.
We decided to go ahead and proceed with the treatment through them. The other company that came after was nothing close to the level of service we received here! The other company didnt even followup with a quote!
On the day of service, the workers were running late because of a job that took longer then anticipated but they called and kept me up to date on when they would arrive. The actual treatment was a breeze. They cleaned up after themselves and let me know to call if there were any future problems. Very nice guys too!
Overall I couldnt have been happier. Highly recommend! 5 stars!

Scheduling the inspection was quick and effortless. Kenan, who did our inspection (on a Friday afternoon), was in our area and therefore was not only on time but early to our appointment. Our appointment lasted about 1.5 hours. He was very thorough and answered questions I have along the way. He was able to give us a quote right then and there. The written inspection report was promptly emailed to us Monday morning.
The only draw back so far is that the quote appears to be fairly high for a few local spot treatments ($ 1200 for 2 hours worth of work for 1 worker). That said, however, MightyMite is the first company we are talking with so will update the review if we decide to go with them for treatment.

Mighty Mite did an excellent job with my house. The inspector and fumigators all wore booties, were polite and professional and prompt, and showed thoughtfulness and concern for the issues that gave me pause.
I try to be as «green» as I can; to that end, I keep a hive of honeybees in my yard and plant California natives that are drought tolerant and food for native pollinators, honeybees, and birds. That being said, I wanted to kill all the *bleeping* termites under and in my house. However, I really didn’t want to hurt the insects and birds that I have intentionally been providing for.
We had to use a chemical called Termidor SC to get the subterranean termites around my house. This poison is dangerous to birds and all insects, including bees. After speaking to the inspector, I was okay with using it as he said they would drill holes into the ground and the poison wouldn’t be sprayed anywhere else. When the workers came out the next day, thankfully one of them pointed out that plants can pull the poison up and the insects and birds that feed on all my native plants could be hurt by that. After a discussion, we decided not to put the treatment along my backyard and the side of my house (the plants in the front of the house and the other side were far enough away that it wouldn’t be a problem). A+ for alerting me to the problem and caring enough to mention long-​term issues!
So why deduct a star? When asked, he said he wouldn’t reduce the charge. So… although only about half of my house got this $ 900 treatment (they did put it under the house), I paid the full amount. In the end, the two workers spent about two hours but I paid $ 2000. Ouch. This is truly a case of «you get what you pay for,» since the service was excellent… but in my case I paid more than I got.
