Evidence Of Termites

Warning Signs Of Termites

Why Termite Convention Pays

Recognizing the early warning signs of subterranean termites is absolutely crucial for implementing effective pest control measures. Homeowners should be vigilant in their inspections, keeping an eye out for telltale signs such as mud tubes, which these pests use as protective highways, discarded wings that they leave behind after swarming, and hollow-sounding wood that can indicate extensive tunneling inside.

By being proactive and identifying these indicators early on, you can take prompt action, which can ultimately save your property from extensive and costly damage. Timely intervention is key in preserving the integrity of your home and ensuring a pest-free environment.

Evidence Of Termites Around Your Property

  • Shelter Tubes: Termite shelter tubes or "mud" tubes are about the width of a pencil. Termites construct these tubes to travel from their underground colony and into the structure to stay protected.
  • Termite Swarm: Termite swarms usually occur in Springtime. They are normally triggered when condition are right including rain fall and warmer temperatures. Termite Swarmers do not cause damage to wood.
  • Termite Damage: Termite damaged wood is normally hollowed out along the grain. The galleries are ragged and contain mud or dirt deposits. Look for small holes in sheetrock or plaster along with mud deposits around the hole.
  • Termite Workers: Worker termites are wingless and white to greyish in color. Workers are found inside the damaged termite wood, inside mud tubes or around your property in the ground while you're doing yard work.
