Finding termites in your home is stressful — but the right treatment, applied by the right team, resolves it completely. At MEC Termite & Pest Control, we’ve been treating termite infestations in Garden Grove and throughout Orange County for over 27 years. We’re a family-owned, licensed, and certified company, and we believe the most important thing we can do for our customers is explain exactly what we’re going to do, why we’re doing it, and what the result will be before any work begins.
Every property is different. A one-size-fits-all approach to termite treatment doesn’t work — and we don’t use one. After your inspection, we’ll recommend the method that matches the species, the extent of the infestation, and the structure of your property. You’ll get a clear quote, a realistic timeline, and a team that stands behind its work.
We offer three primary treatment approaches, each matched to a specific termite species, infestation level, and property type. During your free inspection, our technician will assess your situation and recommend the right solution — or a combination of methods if needed.
Spot treatment is the right choice for isolated drywood termite colonies that are confined to a specific area — a single beam, a section of wall framing, or a window casing. We use eco-friendly injections applied directly to the affected wood, eliminating the colony at its source without disrupting the rest of your home.
Subterranean termites travel through the soil to reach the wood in your home. A soil barrier treatment creates a chemical perimeter around your property’s foundation, blocking their access and eliminating colonies that make contact with the treated zone. This is the most effective long-term solution for subterranean termite activity in Southern California.
For severe, widespread drywood termite infestations — especially where termites have spread to multiple areas of the structure — fumigation is the most thorough solution available. The property is sealed with a tent and treated with a gas that penetrates every cavity, crack, and void in the structure, eliminating 100% of the termite population.
Not sure which treatment is right for your situation? Start with a free termite inspection and we’ll give you a clear recommendation.
Treatment is only part of the job. Once we’ve eliminated the termite colony, we’ll walk you through what to watch for in the coming weeks and schedule a follow-up visit to confirm the infestation has been fully resolved. For fumigation treatments, we conduct a clearance test before you re-enter the property to make sure it’s safe.
If the termites have caused structural damage, our team can handle the repairs too. MEC offers full termite damage repair and remodeling services — replacing damaged wood, repairing drywall, and restoring structural members using pre-treated, borate-infused lumber.
You don’t need to find a separate contractor. We handle the treatment and the repair under one roof, which means faster turnaround and a single point of accountability.
Termite treatment costs in Garden Grove vary depending on the treatment method, the size of the property, and the extent of the infestation. Spot treatments for isolated colonies are typically the most affordable option, while full fumigation for a larger home represents a higher investment — but it’s also the most comprehensive solution available.
Here’s a general guide to help you understand what to expect:
typically lower cost, priced based on number of treatment points
priced based on linear footage of the perimeter
priced based on cubic footage of the structure

The right treatment depends on the termite species and how widespread the infestation is. Drywood termites are typically treated with spot injections or fumigation. Subterranean termites require a soil barrier around the foundation. During your free inspection, our technician will assess your property and give you a clear recommendation before any work begins.
Spot treatment and soil barrier treatments are usually completed in a single visit of a few hours. Fumigation (tenting) requires you to vacate the property for 2–3 days while treatment is underway. We'll give you an exact timeline based on your property and the method we recommend.
For spot treatments and soil barrier work, you don't need to vacate. For fumigation, you'll need to leave the property for 2–3 days. We'll give you a complete preparation checklist well in advance so you have plenty of time to make arrangements.
Costs vary depending on the treatment method, the size of your property, and the extent of the infestation. We provide transparent written quotes before any work begins — no hidden fees, no surprises. Call 714-951-4015 or book a free inspection to get an accurate estimate for your specific situation.
Yes. We use eco-friendly products and application methods that are safe for your household once treatments have dried or cleared. For fumigation, we conduct a clearance test before allowing you back into the property. We'll always give you specific guidance based on the treatment being used.
When treatment is applied correctly and thoroughly, the existing colony is eliminated. However, new termites can always find their way in over time — especially in a high-activity area like Garden Grove. That's why we recommend a termite bond or prevention plan after treatment to ensure your property stays protected year-round.
