Termite Control
EACH YEAR TERMITES DO OVER 5 BILLION DOLLARS’ WORTH OF DAMAGE.
Unfortunately, termites don’t know the difference between a tree in the forest and the wood in or around your property. When wood starts to decay, it releases a combination of gases that attract termites to your property. Then it on takes 1/32 of an inch, the with if a finger nail, to make entry into your property. There they begin to eat 24 hours a day.
In an acre of land there can be up to 6 termite colonies, that can house up to a million termites. Now you see why termites can cause so much damage!

Dirt or Indentions in the Wall
Termites are made up of 90% water, dirt and fecal matter. At times when they are foraging for food, they will break thru the wall. They use the dirt to patch up the wall so they don’t try out.

Swarmers/Secondary Reproductives
At certain times of the year, termite colonies produce “swarmers” - the winged adults that fly away to form their own colonies. Many times, this is nature’s way of letting you know that you have termites. Swarmers don’t actually cause any damage.
Ways You Can Prevent Termites
- Keep mulch, wood debris, scrap lumber, sawdust and firewood away from your home. If you do keep firewood outside your house during the winter, keep it raised and off the ground.
- Make sure at least 3 to 6 inches of the foundation are visible
- Stop excessive moisture from sitting around foundation
- Seal all cracks and holes in your property’s foundation, which termites might use to enter your property
- Grade soil so that water (including air-conditioning condensation) runs away from foundations.
- Ventilate crawl spaces and attics to reduce humidity.
- Cover at least 90% of the soil in crawl spaces with plastic sheeting.
