Protect What Matters Most With Residential Termite Inspections

Termites cause billions of dollars in damages each year, making them one of the most destructive pests. Although they are often hidden away where we can’t see them, the effects of a termite infestation can be devastating.

That’s why it’s important to regularly inspect your home for the presence of termites. Regular inspections are important no matter where you live, but they become even more important if you live in an area prone to termite infestations.

If you’re concerned about an infestation, contact Local Pest Pros for a free termite inspection. Our technicians are experts at identifying and treating existing and potential infestations.

What Are Termites? Are There Different Types of Termites?

Termites are insects that feed on dead plant material, including wood, paper, and other cellulose-based material. There are two main types of termites: subterranean and dry wood.

Subterranean termites live in the soil and can work their way up to the wood sources inside your home. Dry wood termites, meanwhile, feed on wood found inside your home and don’t need soil or moisture to survive.

Subterranean Termites

Subterranean termites are the most common type of termite, and the most destructive. They feed on wood, paper and other items, and live in colonies underground.

These colonies can contain millions of termites and can cause tremendous damage to a home if left unchecked.

Subterranean termites tunnel through wood to find food, creating mud tunnels that they use to travel from their colony to the food source. These tunnels can also create structural damage to the home.

Dry Wood Termites

In contrast to subterranean termites, dry wood termites live inside the wood on your property, rather than in the soil. They feed on both the deadwood and living wood, and can damage structures from the inside out.

Dry wood termites are especially difficult to identify, since they often remain hidden for long periods of time, and the damage they create can be more severe than that of subterranean termites.

What Are Warning Signs You May Have a Termite Infestation?

Although termites are often hidden from view and don’t leave behind any visible signs, there are tell-tale signs of a potential infestation. Be on the lookout for mud tunnels and/or droppings – often in the form of pellets, mud tubes or small swarms of winged insects – around the exterior or interior of your home. Other signs include wood that sounds or feels hollow when knocked on, and any unexplained damage to wood or wallpaper. If you see any of these signs, contact Local Pest Pros right away.
