What are Termites?
Termites are small, winged insects that live in colonies underground or build nests in wood that they hollow out. Termites eat cellulose, the main component of wood, paper, cardboard, and other plant-based materials, making them extremely destructive to homes.
Why are Termites a Problem?
Eastern subterranean termites eat the soft inner wood of the timber in your house, creating honeycomb-like hollows and leaving only the basic outline of a board. This severely weakens the structural integrity and requires costly repair service. These pests only need as little as six months to cause major damage. Regular inspections and preventative measures can save you money in the long run. Contact us to learn more about our services.
Why are Termites hard to spot?
Termites live underground and shy away from light, which, in addition to their size, makes it hard to see them. Swarms of termites can also be confused as swarms of ants in the spring and summer.
