What Is A Termite Bond?
A Termite bond or termite insurance is an agreement between termite service companies and property owners which provides protection against termite infestations. Termite bonds give property owners and managers peace of mind by providing plans which will cover costs to control, eradicate and even repair structural damage caused by termites. In addition, a termite bond renewal is offered on a recurring basis to avoid any lapse in coverage and ensure uninterrupted protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
1What is a termite bond, and why do commercial properties need one?
A termite bond is a service agreement that includes regular termite inspections, proactive treatments, and monitoring to prevent infestations. For commercial properties-especially those with high tenant turnover, kitchens, wood framing, or landscaping-bonds help protect your investment, minimize business disruption, and demonstrate preventative risk management to stakeholders.
2How often are inspections conducted under a commercial termite bond?
Diligent Termite Services provides routine annual or semi-annual inspections based on the property’s risk level, construction type, and location. Inspections include visual assessments and monitoring of all installed baiting systems to ensure active termite populations are detected and addressed early.
3Are both subterranean and drywood termites included in coverage?
Our standard commercial termite bond focuses on subterranean termites, which are the most prevalent and destructive in Florida. Drywood termite detection and treatment may be available as an additional service, particularly for structures with exposed wood or coastal locations. We assess this need during the initial site evaluation.
4Is the termite bond transferable if the building is sold or leased to a new party?
Yes. Diligent Termite Services offers transferable termite bonds, ensuring continuity of protection even when ownership or tenancy changes. This is especially useful for retail centers and triple-net lease arrangements. Transfers may require a new inspection to validate active status.
5What types of properties can be covered under a single termite bond?
We serve a broad range of commercial properties, including:
- Strip malls and shopping centers
- Standalone restaurants or retail outlets
- Office complexes and warehouses
- Multi-tenant commercial buildings
Customized multi-structure coverage is available under a single service agreement for simplified management and documentation.
6What termite prevention methods are used for commercial structures?
Our integrated prevention approach includes:
- Termite bait stations strategically placed around the property’s perimeter
- Perimeter liquid treatments in high-risk zones
- Localized treatments in expansion joints, entry points, and utility penetrations
- Ongoing monitoring and documentation with each inspection
All equipment and techniques are selected to be non-intrusive to tenant operations and property aesthetics.
7What documentation do property managers receive for compliance and recordkeeping?
Diligent Termite Services provides:
- A formal termite bond contract
- Inspection and treatment reports
- Service logs and monitoring data
- Renewal notices and scheduled visit reminders
This documentation supports compliance for insurance providers, lenders, and municipal building departments.
8What happens if termites are found during a bonded inspection?
If termites or signs of activity are found during a scheduled inspection, Diligent will:
- Perform targeted treatment using approved bait or termiticide systems
- Reinforce existing bait station coverage
- Schedule follow-up inspections
Prompt action ensures issues are contained before structural impact occurs.
9Are your termite bonds compliant with Florida state regulations?
