Participant[quote=flu]There is an annual thing for termites?[/quote]
Tent fumigation is about $1200 to $3400 for an SFR, depending on size.
With a tent fume contract, the homeowner gets a 1-3 year guarantee and free treatment during that time frame (if termites or other pests come back). This guarantee extends to new owners, as well.
After that, the pest control co. who contracted your tent fume will give you a one-year contract for typically <$300 per year (for as many visits as needed) and a discount on a sale inspection, when/if the time comes. IMO, tent fumigation is the ONLY WAY to properly eradicate a continuing termite problem but also kills all other living things in its path.

I didn't think there was a yearly terminate control thing. Maybe I'm wrong. I always thought the only option was the tent fumigation.

flu, you CAN sign up for a yearly contract for pest control. YOU DON’T HAVE to tent fume. You can pay $700-$2,000 yr. to microwave, use Tim-Bor and other methods to fight termites and if they don’t work, your pest control co. will give you a discount on tent fume.
A pest control visit to just eradicate spiders might cost $275-$350 without a contract. Maybe that’s all you need but you need the opinion of a pest control specialist.
IMO tent fume is the only thing that is guaranteed to work. You and your family/pets/plants have to leave and your food has to be specially wrapped. Been through this several times and its WORTH IT.
