It usually starts small, a soft patch on the wall, paint that bubbles for no reason, a door that suddenly won’t close right. Then you spot a pile of wings by the window, and your stomach drops. Termites.
In Baltimore, they’re a fact of life. The mix of moisture, wood, and mild weather means they’re active almost year-round. They don’t make noise, they don’t leave messes, they just eat. Slowly, quietly, constantly. By the time most people realize they have a problem, it’s been going on for months, maybe years.
That’s where Scientific Plant Service comes in. Whether you live in a century-old rowhouse near Patterson Park or a newer build in Towson, we’ll inspect, explain, and take care of the problem the right way, safely, thoroughly, and without the guesswork.
Step
1
Free Termite Inspection in Baltimore
We start every job with a real inspection, not a quick look-around. We crawl into basements, peek under porches, and check foundations, attics, and crawl spaces. Using moisture meters and other detection tools, we find what’s hidden before it becomes visible.
Even if you just suspect something’s wrong, it’s worth getting checked. A free inspection today can save you thousands tomorrow.

A Treatment Plan That Fits Your Home
Once we know what we’re dealing with, we put together a plan made for your home, not a template. That could include:
Liquid barriers to stop termites from spreading.
Baiting systems that wipe out entire colonies underground.
Spot treatments or fumigation, if we find drywood termites in the structure.
We’ll walk you through exactly what’s needed and why, and we’ll never recommend anything you don’t need.

Safe, Thorough Treatment
When it’s time to treat, our technicians work cleanly and carefully. We treat only where needed, soil lines, framing, crawl spaces, or attics. All the products we use are EPA-approved and safe once dry, with no harsh chemical smells. You’ll know what we’re using, where, and why no surprises.

Keeping Termites Away for Good
After your home is treated, we keep watch. Termites can try to come back, but we won’t let them. We offer follow-up inspections, bait station maintenance, and long-term protection plans that keep your home secure year after year.
A lot of people think termites are only active in spring, they’re not. In Maryland’s climate, subterranean termites keep moving all year long, and drywood termites live right inside the wood. Without treatment, they’ll quietly cause damage that can add up fast.
By the time you see sagging floors or peeling paint, the colony has already done its work. Most homeowners don’t notice until it’s bad, but an inspection can catch it before it becomes costly.
Baltimore’s charm is in its history, but older homes also mean older wood and damp foundations. From rowhomes in Fells Point to shaded lots in Catonsville, we’ve seen how easily termites can take hold.
We’re not some big chain with rotating crews. We’re Baltimore locals, family-run, trusted, and proud to still be serving the same communities that started with us generations ago. When you call us, you talk to real people who care about getting it right.
Watch for small mud lines on your foundation, soft or hollow-sounding wood, or discarded wings near windows and doors.
In Baltimore, treatments usually range from $700 to $2,500 depending on the size of your home and the severity of the infestation. Inspections are always free.
Yes. Everything we use is EPA-approved and applied by trained professionals who follow strict safety standards.
Liquid barrier treatments can protect your home for several years, while bait systems offer ongoing protection when maintained regularly.
Fix leaks fast, keep mulch and firewood away from the foundation, and schedule a yearly inspection. Termite prevention is simple, but only if you stay ahead of them.
