How to Detect Evidence of Subterranean Termites

Everyone knows how dangerous termites can be – they eat away at the structure of your home and can even get in your walls and furniture. They work quietly but fast and reproduce at an alarming rate. Before you know it, thousands of tiny pests are causing extensive, costly damage to your house. But what you might not know are the tell-tale signs that you have a termite infestation. If you want to know if you need termite treatments, here is what to look for:

• Peeling paint – this may look like water damage
• Tiny holes in drywall
• Bucking wood and squeaky floorboards
• Wood that sounds hollow if tapped
• Windows or doors in wooden frames that are stuck
• Chaotic patterns in wooden furniture or floorboards
• Mud tubes around the foundation of your house
• Piles of wings that look like fish scales
• Termite pellets, which look like small piles of salt or pepper

Even after you’ve checked all around your house for signs of a termite infestation, you may still be unsure if you have a termite problem. The only way to be 100% sure that you don’t have termites is to get a professional inspection. We understand that you might be hesitant to call an exterminator if you’re not positive there’s a problem, and that’s why we offer free termite inspections.
