Types of Termites

Termites come in different species, each with its unique traits and habits. Identifying the type of termite infestation is crucial for effective treatment. 

Here are the most common termite types you might encounter:

  • Subterranean termites: These sneaky termites build their nests underground and can cause extensive damage. They are known for constructing mud tubes as they travel between their nests and food sources.
  • Drywood termites: Unlike their subterranean counterparts, drywood termites infest dry wood structures. They don't require contact with the soil and can be found in furniture, walls, and other wooden elements.
  • Dampwood termites: As the name suggests, dampwood termites prefer moist and decaying wood. They are commonly found in areas with high humidity or water damage.
  • Formosan termites: Formosan termites are aggressive and destructive. They build massive colonies and can cause significant damage in a short period. They are often found in warm and humid regions.

We understand the characteristics and behavior of each termite species, allowing us to tailor our treatment methods accordingly. Our goal is to swiftly and effectively eliminate any existing termite infestations as well as prevent new ones from occurring. 

Signs You Have Termites

Detecting termite infestations early is crucial to prevent extensive damage. Termites are silent destroyers and might already be eating away at your property without you even knowing it. While a termite control professional can perform a thorough inspection of your property, there are things you can observe that can let you know if you might have a termite problem. 

Look out for these signs that termites might be wreaking havoc on your property:

  • Sagging or hollow-sounding wood: Termites hollow out the wood from the inside, causing it to weaken and become hollow or sag.
  • Mud tubes: Subterranean termites create mud tubes as protected highways for traveling between their nests and food sources. These tubes can be found along foundation walls or other surfaces.
  • Discarded wings: After a termite swarm, you might find discarded wings near windowsills or other light sources.
  • Frass: Termite droppings, known as frass, resemble small pellets or sawdust and can often be found near termite-infested areas.
