South Shore Termite Control
Termites are small tan or brown colored insects that live under the soil. Termites feed on wood which can cause structural damage to a home or business. They are rarely seen because they live underground and will tunnel to find feeding locations. The effects of a termite infestation, however, will be easy to recognize after too long. A termite infestation should be removed by pest control experts as quickly as possible to avoid any serious structural damage on your property.
Termite infestations caused more than $5 billion in damage to millions of homes in the United States each year. Once they find a good place to feed on your property they are typically active in crawl spaces, behind walls and under the foundation of a home. Finding damaged wood around your home or business is often a sign that a termite infestation is nearby. Other signs of termites on your property include finding mud tubes that termites tunnel through and seeing the winged swarmer termites around.
Termite Prevention
The best way to prevent costly damage is to frequently monitor all of the structures on your property for termite infestations. Keeping your home or business protected from pests as the seasons change is a particularly effective way to keep them off your property.
