The Termite Threat
Termites are silent and they play the best game of hide and seek. They are relentless and exist in every stat except Alaska. Termites can fit through a crack as little as 1/32nd of an inch, and hundreds of thousands live in a single colony. Termites infest 1 in every 20 US homes and that includes homes made of brick, siding or stucco. Did you know that the average cost of termite damage is above $8000? Termites cause over $5 billion in damage each year which is more than fires, floods and tornados combined. Plus, most homeowners’ insurance does not cover termite treatment or repair damage. Therefore, it is important to know all of your termite control options.
Subterranean Termites
Formosan Termites are subterranean which means the main nest is usually underground. These termites will then enter structures and homes through mud shelter tubes built up from the foundation. After these termites gain entry into a structure, they can build large nests in the walls and floors. All they need is a source of moisture and they will thrive. Once Formosan Subterranean Termites are established in a home, it can be very difficult to remove them. Learn more – HERE.
