Termites cause millions of dollars in damage every year.

Even though the exterior of your home or business may be brick, stone, or metal, most buildings have some wood

included in the structure. Once inside, termites will tunnel throughout the building eating the wooden portions of the

structure.

During the spring and early summer, termite swarmers may swarm from the ground as part of their reproductive

cycle. Sometimes these swarms can occur in or near homes. Swarmers in or near your house indicate a colony is in

the area. Colonies are several feet below the ground's surface with

tunnels leading to the surface.

Since termites have been

known to tunnel hundreds

of feet from the colony to

find food, there is a high

probability that your home

already has a termite

infestation or will become

infested.

If you are in the process of building a home, call us to get pricing for pretreat

services. However, if your home is infested with termites or you want to

protect your older home from termites, you have two options: chemical

treatment or bait stations. One reason termites are able to cause so much

damage is because these pests are often not detected until a substantial

amount of damage has been done.
