Termite Treatment (liquid soil) cost
We keep the estimating math boring on purpose. For Termite Treatment (liquid soil) we use mid hours of 8 and materials around $450, then apply the same 2.0× / 2.25× / 2.5× labor markup schedule as every other Fairange job.

How the national mid is built
Before you enter a ZIP we use the U.S. OEWS mean wage for Pest Control Workers (SOC 37-2021): $22.31/hr (BLS OEWS May 2025). Mid estimate ≈ 8 hours × $22.31 × 2.25× markup + materials mid $450 (with a small regional materials factor). Low uses p10 wages × 2.0×; high uses p90 × 2.5×. National planning band: $333 – $852 – $1,941.
Full algebra: methodology. Markup schedule is Fairange’s published assumption, not a BLS figure.
Materials band
Published materials low / mid / high: $200 / $450 / $900 (liquid soil termiticide treatment for typical single-family footprint; bait systems priced differently). Baselines are Fairange editorial figures tied to public retail when we have a SKU basket; full source notes live in DATA_SOURCES and the methodology page. We dampen materials with a regional factor (about 0.88–1.18) so wages — not a fake local parts market — do most of the geography.
