Do you want a poison barrier around your home (Deans) or a bait trap that draws termites towards your home to take the poison back to the others (Massey)?

Not true. I have a 10-year contract with Massey and it is NOT the bait system. They pumped chemicals completely around the perimeter of the house. I actually watched the guy do it. According to Dean's, they only treat about 20 percent of the house every year. I went over what both companies offer in great detail when my initial 5-year new house contract expired. Both Massey and Dean's came to my house and explained exactly what they would do. I specifically did not want the bait system, and I don't think Massey even offers the bait system anymore. Dean's would not provide a multi-year contract, only a year-to-year contract, and they would not treat the entire house at the same time. That was my personal experience with Massey and Dean's about a year ago. The annual contract renewal fee for Massey is $79 guaranteed for the first 5 years. The annual fee for Dean's was about $140, but it can change every year. Dean's fee is higher because it includes treatment for 20 percent of the house. The Massey renewal fee only includes an inspection and contract extension.
