Pests We Treat : Termites

Termites are dangerous pests that can severely damage the structure of your home or building. Termites' main diet is wood, and because buildings use wood in the structure, they are an excellent place for them to get food. Because of their strong jaws, termites can eat and tunnel through the foundation of your building. If the termite infestation is left untreated, this can result in a collapse.

The elimination techniques will differ depending on the type of termite infestation. That is where My Pest Pros comes to help. Our technicians perform a thorough inspection of your building and quickly work to get rid of them. Contact us today to treat your termite problem.

How to Identify Termites

Termites with wings

Termites are similar in appearance to ants. However, unlike ants, they do not have a distinctive head and body area. Instead, the termite is the same width from the top of the head to its bottom.

Worker termites that cause damage to homes and buildings are typically white in color.

Winged termites, which are likely the ones that you will find in your home, are typically red/brown in color, although winged termites can be black. These flying termites, known as termite swarmers, are a sign that a termite colony is growing and reproducing.

Signs you may have a termite infestation include finding the discarded wings of termites, stuck windows/doors, mud tubes on the outside of your home, tiny holes in your wall, and termite droppings. If you have reason to believe that termites are infesting your home, call the team at My Pest Pros to take care of it for you.
