Get Free From Termite Infestation With The Right Termite Control

Termites are pests; if they are not controlled then your home is NO safe from damage.

Termites are considered as pests all throughout the word. Being social insects, they live in a large number of colonies of about hundred thousand population.  They feed on wood and forage 24 hours in search of new territories.

 

Are termites destructive?

Termites are totally destructive when not controlled or treated, and most especially when infestation worsens. As they continue to increase and feed on a wooden structure which could be your house walls, columns, or furniture, termites damage these structures into an empty wooden shell. Also, termites are not only a threat to buildings, houses, and properties. As subterranean termites tend to forage below ground for moisture, they could also be highly destructive to crops, affecting vital parts of a plant like the roots.

 

Signs of termite infestation

Termite infestation happens when a termite colony finds its way to a property like tunnels, and start feeding on cellulose-based materials like wood, furniture, and other structures made from wood. In other cases, termites also live and feed on crops.

Termite infestation could be hard to detect if these insects thrive unseen below surface. But there could be active signs such as:

  1. Visible soil-covered paths on the walls or columns built my termites as their safe passage.
  2. Termite swarms or discarded wings on the ground from winged reproductive termites sent to find and build a new colony.
  3. Termite droppings that had fallen from the ceiling or furniture. These droppings look like very tiny wood-colored specs excreted by these insects.

It is best recommended to have a pest control expert inspect the property for you even before some signs of infestation become active to prevent costly damages in the future.

 

Is your property at risk?

Your house or property could be at risk anytime when it comes to termite attacks. As we consider our properties our large investment, it should be given with paramount attention especially to pest invasion. This is no different to commercial facilities as well.

What’s bad about termites is that they can infest and thrive without being noticed unless they hang out in the open. If you encountered active signs of infestation, you can treat them yourself with some termite protection alternatives at home or have a pest operator near you to check your area and solve the problem the best way possible.
