Termite

Inspections and Control

In the U.S., Subterranean termites, including Eastern, Western, Desert and Formosans, which build underground nests, are a concern in every state except Alaska. Subterranean termites can be extremely destructive. They can tunnel to wooden structures, like your home, into which they burrow to obtain food. Given enough time, they can cause extensive damage and will feed on the wood until nothing is left but a shell.

Termites are highly social insects that live in colonies where populations can reach more than one million. The Eastern Subterranean termite is a problem for homeowners from Southern Ontario in Canada, south throughout the Eastern United States and as far west as Montana.

In the spring, winged termites leave the parental nest in swarms to create a new colony. The swarming lasts less than an hour, so it's very likely you'll never even see it. The winged termites themselves look quite a bit like flying ants, for which they are often mistaken.

Termite Prevention Tips
When it comes to gaining access to your home, termites are amazingly proficient. The last thing you want to do is make their job easier. Get a pest professional to uncover, control, and prevent termites. Small holes in wood, crumbling drywall, sagging doors or floors, insect wings and small shelter tubes are some of the more obvious signs of a potential infestation of termites. But even if you don't notice any of these signs, that doesn't necessarily mean termites, or the conditions that invite them, aren't there.

Regular inspections by a licensed pest professional are the best way to help ensure your home truly is, and remains, free from termites and the damage that they cause. Qualified pest professionals have the training in termite biology and behavior to identify, prevent and treat termite infestations.
