TIPS: 

How to keep your home safe from termites.



Termites are the worst nightmare for a homeowner. They are infamous for their destructive nature causing more than $5 billion in property damage every year. Unfortunately, these financial losses are not covered by homeowners’ insurance policies. Termites are known as “Silent Destroyers” because of their ability to chew wooden structures including furniture and flooring. If undetected, these tiny, ravenous, and wood-destroying pests will eat cellulose matter of your wooden furniture and component of your home.

Termites aka “Silent Destroyers” never stop eating and damaging properties. They eat 24 hours a day nonstop. They are a perfect foodie and never want to stop eating. They have very hard saw-toothed jaws that work like scissors and cutters. Thus, they can make damage to hard wooden components and furniture of the home. By eating your wooden structures, they can make significant damage to your property. Thus, they can be a possible threat and a real concern if you are looking forward to enjoying a trouble-free and pest-free life. Needless to mention that being careful and attentive about termite infestations, termite control, and termite extermination is imperative.


Types of Termites You Need to Know

There are approximately 2,000 types of termite species in this world. All of them in varying in shape, size, and behavior. But one thing common in all of them is a love for wood and making damage to property. Here I am going to talk about 4 types of termites that have been a great and real threat for homeowners.

Dampwood Termites

Dampwood termites are appropriately named as they are particularly attracted to damp wood pieces, moisture-rich wood logs, and decaying timbers. The area which is slightly wet such as a bathroom or kitchen or any open space can attract damp wood termites. They can make the damage any wood structure or piece of furniture that has contact with any sort of moisture or water source. By creating a series of champers in your wooden flooring, bathroom doors also other wooden structures that are open to water sources, damp wood termites can permanently damage wooden structures and the surrounding area.

Drywood Termites

Drywood termites, more often than not, do not need to be near the soil, do not create mud tunnels and prefer to eat dry woods such as dead trees, structure timbers, furniture, hardwood floors, and wooden support beams.

Subterranean Termites

Subterranean termites are, more often than not, live underground in the soul.   They live in colonies that number in the millions. They build the largest nests than other termite species. Their nests are connected via mud tubes to food sources such as trees and structural timbers in a building. They are among the most destructive types of termites and can easily bite wood logs and wooden structures bit by bit.

Formosan Termites

Like subterranean termites, Formosan termites are also very destructive and live underground in large colonies. These tiny destructive pests first make mud nests in the soil and then begin eating nearby wood components such as floors, walls, wallpapers, wood frames, and almost anything that comes into their way. They can attack everything from trees to shrubs to wooden structures in a home or office. You will be shocked to know that a single colony of Formosan termites can destroy up to 1 foot of wood in 1 month or less.


Know the Signs of Termite Infestation.

It’s no secret that termites are destructive and can be a real concern. It can be hard to detect the termite infestation in a home or office building for a common person. A common person cannot detect the same until severe damages have been made by the termites. More often than not, termites make their homes in a dark, humid, and protected environment so that they cannot be found easily. But by monitoring and inspecting your premise attentively you can detect whether termite infestation is or not. Here are some common signs of termite infestations.

  • Any cracked or bubbling paint on the wall
  • Discolored or drooping of drywall
  • Frass or termite droppings in and around home
  • Hollow sounding wood
  • Small holes in the drywall

  • Stuck windows or doors
  • Tunnels inwood structure
  • Presence of discarded wings from swarmers
  • Floor, wall, ceiling and foundation damages
  • Maze-like patterns in furniture, floorboards or walls

Hire Professional Termite Control Services

Generally, there are two types of termite control services provided by professional termite control companies or exterminators. They are the following:

Pre-construction termite control

Pre-construction anti-termite treatment, aka Soil Treatment, is executed in the initial phase of construction of a building. In this type of anti-termite treatment, pest control technicians create an anti-termite barrier in the building foundation. In the process, a specialized solution is applied to the areas under and around the concrete base. In this way, experts create a termite barrier that has a long-term effect and eliminates the chances of termite invasion in the future.

Post-construction termite control

This type of treatment is done on an existing construction (house or office building) to pro-actively and thoroughly safeguard the property against termite infestation. During the treatment process, experts treat the soil adjacent to or under the construction with highly effective pest control products that kill or keep away termites. The post-construction termite treatment consists of DRILL + FILL + SEAL techniques. Experts first drill the holes and then fill them with pesticide mixture and then seal the holes after treatment is done.


Few Secrets about termites that They don't want you to know!


Have you recently have gone through termite control in your home, thinking that these silent killers will not trouble you anymore? You must be mistaken then because, termites are the silent killers, who will never let you know that when and where they are damaging your property. These little critters can cause big damages hence, there are some secrets about the termites that you must know to keep such critters at bay.

Termites can enter from anywhere

Well, termites are tiny critters that can enter your home through a crack or crevice. And this makes it difficult to prevent them from getting in or reach your woods.

There are more than one species

If you think your home is invaded by only one type of termites and luckily you have found them then you may be mistaking. There are more than one species of termites. Termites are mainly categorized in three types – Subterranean, Drywood, and Dampwood Termites.  Subterranean termites live in the soil under and around homes. Drywood termites build their nests in dry woods and Dampwood termites weaken structures by eating tunnels inside the wood.

There are many ways to fight with termites

Yes! This is true that there are different ways to fight with these silent destroyers but, the termites would never want you to know about this. Subterranean termites can be treated with bait treatment, liquid soil, or both. Well, tent fumigation is required to stop the active dry wood termites in a home.

They will cost you a lot

If you are thinking that termites will not harm you or your family members then wait, you just cannot imaging how much they can cost you by destroying the furniture or structure of your home. Termites nearly damage $5 billion in a year and repairing damage costs you over $8000.

Termites can’t take the heat

Just like bedbugs, termites cannot take the heat. Heating infested wood to over 120 degrees for at least half an hour will kill the bugs. However, the heat won’t protect against further damage but there are many more no-chemical ways to get rid of termites and other pests that you can use.

Termite treatments don’t keep us out forever

This is the most important part that termites would never want you to know about them. Termite treatments won’t last for decades. Many exterminators or Pest Control Companies have warranties and extension opportunities. Professionals will use effective termite control treatments and products that help you get rid of termites but, don’t assume one professional treatment will cover your home for life.

Termites eat 24×7

This may sound wired that how a creature can eat 24×7 but, this is true that termites are nonstop eating machines. They can bite out of your woodwork while you sleep. You won’t believe but a single colony of termites can eat more than 100 pounds of wood every year. And they can damage your home’s foundation or hardwood flooring over time.

Termites are blind but can easily find you

People know that termites eat wood but, most people don’t know this fact that termites are blind. They can easily hide behind walls and underground. They are highly adapted to find food sources by randomly searching through the soil and communicating with other members of their colony because termites eat 24×7.

If these are the secret things that termite never wants you to know then how can you know that your home is invaded with termites or you have termites at home? Look out for these signs to know there’s a colony of the small critters: –

  • Paint that has bubbled or cracked
  • Solid wood now sounds hollow
  • There are mud tubes outside

 

Natural Termite Control

Well, the best way to get rid of termites is to call the professional Pest Control Technicians. By using chemicals and other termite control products they will kill the termites. But, if you don’t like the chemical method to kill termites then you can go for some easy and natural termite control ideas.

  • Use a wet cardboard trap

The corrugated boxes can be the perfect termite trap. Just set it near the place where you suspect the termite colony. If the pests feeding off of the cellulose in the box then remove it and burn it.
