Termite Control

 
A typical homeowner's insurance policy does not cover destruction caused by termites, even though they cause 5 billion dollars in damage to homes throughout the United States each year. It’s important that homeowners understand the threat of termites, and take the necessary steps to protect their homes.
 
Why should you worry?
Subterranean termites are extremely destructive. First they build tunnels to wooden structures, and then they burrow into those structures to obtain food. Any wood or cellulose-containing material constitutes termite food, and given time to do so, they’ll eat until nothing is left but a shell.
 
How do you know you have a termite problem?
You can’t assume your home is termite-free just because you’ve never seen them – they only swarm once or twice a year, and you might miss it!
 
You’re more likely to discover you have a termite problem by discovering the evidence they leave behind. If you encounter any of these signs, there’s a good chance termites are invading your home right now:
  • Mud tubes built for traveling above ground  
  • Damaged or hollow-sounding wood
  • Pinholes in drywall or wallpaper
  • Piles of small wings
 
Of course, it’s possible you’ll miss every one of these signs as well – termites avoid light and air, so they build their colonies where you’re not likely to stumble upon them. The very best way to be sure you don’t have termites is to contact a licensed and certified pest management profesional to conduct a thorough inspection of your home.
