Termite Treatment Cost in Mobile, AL
Termite treatment cost in Mobile and Baldwin County varies
with home size, foundation type (slab vs. crawl space), termite species
(native subterranean vs. Formosan vs. drywood), method (liquid barrier
vs. bait stations vs. fumigation), and whether a termite bond / warranty
is included. The licensed operator the call routes to provides a
written quote after on-site inspection — pricing on this page is
published industry context, not a quote.
Typical Mobile / Baldwin treatment cost ranges
| Service | Typical published range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Termite inspection (stand-alone) | $100 – $199 | WDC-certified inspector; required for NPMA-33 / WDO report. |
| Liquid termiticide perimeter treatment (avg. home) | $1,200 – $2,500 | Native subterranean treatment, typical 2,000–2,500 sq ft home. Formosan adds premium. |
| Bait station installation + monitoring (annual) | $900 – $1,800 install + $250 – $450 annual monitoring | Sentricon AlwaysActive or equivalent. |
| Whole-structure fumigation / tenting | $2,500 – $9,000+ | Required for advanced drywood or aerial Formosan; FC-certified. |
| Annual termite bond / warranty (retreatment-only) | $150 – $300/yr | Cheaper; covers reapplication if termites return. |
| Annual termite bond / warranty (repair-and-retreatment) | $300 – $700+/yr | Premium; covers structural repair if termite damage occurs. |
What drives the price in Mobile / Baldwin specifically
- Formosan presence. Treatment specs for Formosan
differ from native subterranean treatment, and re-treatment intervals
may be tighter. Treatment cost is typically 20–40% higher when
Formosan is documented or suspected. - Foundation type. Slab construction requires
subslab injection through drilled holes; crawl-space construction
uses trench treatment. Slab is often slightly more expensive. - Home size and linear feet of foundation.
Termiticide volume is calculated per label spec by linear foot. - Eastern Shore premium properties. Bayfront,
Point Clear, Ono Island, Fairhope historic district often require
pier / boathouse / outbuilding inspection in addition to the main
residence. - Hurricane water damage history. Sally, Ivan, and
Frederic damaged framing may require more extensive direct-wood
treatment. - Bond type. Repair-and-retreatment costs more
than retreatment-only but is more defensible for Formosan
exposure.
What is in a typical written quote
- Inspection findings (WDC inspector documents active and prior
infestation, conditions conducive, treatment history). - Treatment method (liquid, bait, direct wood, or combination).
- Bond type and annual renewal cost.
- Re-treatment schedule.
- Repair / construction recommendations (e.g., grade adjustment,
moisture remediation).
