Living in a house with termites is not safe. Termites cause serious structural damage, which can lead to costly repairs. Additionally, they may produce allergens that can trigger health problems for residents. Ignoring signs of infestation can worsen the situation, increasing risks and costs.

Subterranean termites can cause the most damage of any termite species. These termites build distinctive tunnels, often referred to as “mud tubes,” to reach food sources and protect themselves from open air. They eat wood 24 hours a day, seven days a week, using their saw-toothed jaws to bite off small fragments of wood one piece at a time. Over time, subterranean termites can critically damage a building structure, sometimes causing a total collapse. Subterranean termites threaten homeowners across the country, as they’re found in every state in the U.S except Alaska. Call us for a free inspection today at 512-746-4111.

Termites date back more than 120 million years to the time of the dinosaurs. They are known as "silent destroyers" because of their ability to chew through wood, flooring and even wallpaper undetected. Each year, termites cause more than $6.8 billion in property damage - costs that aren't covered by homeowners insurance policies. This is why being vigilant about termite control and termite extermination is so important. Call us for your free inspection today. 512-746-4111

Q. What are these black, winged insects in my home?

A. Adult reproductive termites are dark-brown to blackish insects, about 3/8 inch-long. Commonly referred to as “swarmers”, the job of reproductive termites is to mate and start new colonies. Termite swarmers may or may not have wings, as their wings often are shed shortly after flight. Swarming termites are often confused with ants but can be distinguished by two simple characters. Termites lack the “pinched” waist of ants. Also, termite wings are equal in length, compared to ants that have distinctly longer front wings. Although termite swarmers can, occasionally, enter homes through open doors or windows, finding termite swarmers indoors is a reliable signal of infestation. Termite swarms can occur throughout the year, but are most commonly seen between the months of February and May in Texas. CALL US FOR A FREE INSPECTION 512-746-4111.
