“Damage Is Often Hidden, Inside-Out Destruction”

Did you know subterranean termites consume wood from the inside out?

They often leave a thin exterior surface intact, making damage difficult to detect until structural integrity is compromised.

By the time floors feel soft or trim appears distorted, damage may be advanced.

Homeowners' insurance policies generally do not cover termite damage, as it is seen as preventable through regular inspections and maintenance. If damage is discovered, repair costs can reach tens of thousands of dollars, not including hidden damage behind walls that requires further exploratory inspections to uncover the full extent. Regular annual inspections are crucial for protection.

Swarm Season Is Approaching

Did you know termite swarmers are often mistaken for flying ants?

In spring, mature colonies of
Eastern Subterranean Termite
produce winged reproductives known as alates.

If you see swarmers indoors, it may indicate an active colony inside or directly beneath your structure.

How to identify termites:

• Straight antennae
• Equal-length wings
• Thick waist

Discarded wings near windows or doors are a warning sign.

Swarmers are not the problem. They are the signal.
