Termite Treatment in North Bergen, NJ
Seeing mud tubes, swarmers or damaged wood in your North Bergen home? Silver Bullet Pest Control finds where the termites are getting in and treats the whole colony — not just the spot you can see — then helps you keep them out.
You’ll get a clear explanation of what we found and how we’ll fix it before any work begins.
What we do in North Bergen

- Follow-up visit and prevention plan
- WDI reports and clearance letters for home sales
Termite treatment options
- Liquid soil treatment: a continuous treated zone in the soil along the foundation (trenching and rodding outside, drilling through slabs or steps where needed). Termites that cross it are eliminated, including the ones carrying it back to the colony.
- Bait systems: stations installed around the home that termites feed on and share, reducing and eliminating the colony over time — a good choice where drilling or trenching is difficult (bait stations vs. liquid).
- Spot and foam treatments: for wall voids, door frames and other active areas, usually combined with a full perimeter treatment (does termite spray work?).
We recommend the method after the inspection, based on construction, slab or basement, wells, landscaping and where activity is.
Termites in North Bergen and Hudson County
Many homes in North Bergen and across Hudson County are older, closely spaced or attached, with shared walls, brick-and-frame construction and basements that stay damp. Termites can move between neighboring structures through soil and foundation cracks, so activity next door is worth taking seriously.
Eastern subterranean termites — the termite found throughout New Jersey — usually swarm from March to May on warm days after rain. A swarm inside the house, or piles of shed wings near windows, means a mature colony is close by. The colony lives in the soil and keeps feeding all year; in heated basements activity often continues through the winter.
Signs of termites to look for
- Mud tubes on foundation walls, piers, sill plates or inside the basement (what mud tubes mean)
- Swarmers or shed wings near windows, doors and light fixtures (flying ants vs. termite swarmers, wings in the house)
- Hollow or soft wood in baseboards, trim, framing or floor joists
- Bubbling paint or sagging floors that can look like water damage (how to tell the difference)
How it works
- Inspect: We check the foundation, basement or crawl space, framing, garage, porches and decks for tubes, damage and moisture.
- Plan: You get a clear treatment plan for your home and what we found — no pressure, no guesswork.
- Treat: Licensed technicians apply the treatment and document the work with photos.
- Protect: Follow-up visit, prevention checklist and protection options so termites don’t come back.

Termite Treatment — FAQ
How long does termite treatment take?
Most homes are treated in a single visit, usually a few hours depending on size and construction. Bait systems are installed in one visit and then monitored.
Is termite treatment safe for kids and pets?
We use EPA-registered products applied by licensed technicians according to the label. We'll tell you if anyone should stay out of treated areas and for how long.
Will termites come back after treatment?
A properly applied treatment protects the home for years, but conditions like mulch against the foundation or leaks can invite new activity. We give you a prevention checklist and protection options.
Do you treat termites in North Bergen the same day?
When the schedule allows, yes — and if you've found swarmers or active damage, call and we'll get you in as soon as possible.
How do I know if I have termites or flying ants?
Termite swarmers have straight antennae, a thick waist and two pairs of equal-length wings that break off easily. Flying ants have elbowed antennae, a pinched waist and uneven wings. If you are not sure, save a few in a bag and call us.
