Where will I find termites?

Termites are typically found in their colonies underground, but they may also be found outdoors near fallen trees, piles of branches and debris, tree stumps, and woodpiles. Once they invade interior spaces, termites are often located underneath wood flooring, between walls, in furniture, and anywhere with easy access to wood.
Why do I have a termite problem?

A termite problem is typical on properties with many of the factors that attract these pests easily available. Termites love properties with lots of soil-to-wood contact, piles of debris like branches and tree stumps, and moist or humid conditions. Investigating your property for these factors and removing them is an essential step in proper termite control.
Are termites dangerous?

While termites don't spread diseases to humans or contaminate food storage areas, they are still dangerous pests to host around your property. Termite infestations easily infiltrate your property's wooden structures, and these pests will tunnel away at wooden areas to expand their colonies. Over time, a termite infestation leads to serious, costly damage to your property and even the risk of structural collapse.
It's important to invest in professional termite control to remove termites before major damages occur.
What are termites?

Termites are small insects known for their strong jaws and tunneling activities. Most termites grow to about half of an inch in length and have a tan to light brown coloration. Termites live in colonies with social structures or castes, and their roles consist of workers, soldiers, or reproductives in every colony.
Termites invading your property are a major problem due to the destruction they cause and the fact that most infestations start out unnoticed. Routine termite inspections help to detect these pests so you can remove them before serious problems occur.
