Termites enter your home through small cracks or gaps in your foundation, walls, or around pipes and electrical lines. They can also find their way in through wood-to-ground contact or overexposed, untreated areas like wooden decks, fences, or firewood piles.

You may hear early morning or evening scratching, scurrying, or chewing sounds. Chipmunks are most active at dawn and dusk. You might also notice insulation damage or droppings.

Termites can begin to cause significant damage surprisingly quickly. The exact timeframe depends on factors like the size of the infestation and the type of termites, but in general:

• Subterranean termites (the most common type) can cause visible damage in as little as 3 to 6 months in a heavily infested area. These termites typically start in hidden areas and work their way into the wood of your home, eating it from the inside out.
• Drywood termites may take several years to cause noticeable damage, as they usually infest smaller areas of wood and are more difficult to detect early on.

In the early stages of an infestation, termites often cause little visible damage. The wood they eat from the inside may look normal on the outside, making it easy for homeowners to miss the signs. However, as they continue to feed, structural damage can escalate quickly, compromising the integrity of your home’s framework. It’s crucial to address any signs of termites early, as even a small infestation can lead to significant damage if left untreated. Regular inspections can help catch potential problems before they become costly.

There are three primary types of termites that can infest homes and properties: Subterranean, Drywood, and Formosan termites. Each type behaves differently, has unique characteristics, and requires different approaches to control and treatment. Subterranean termites are the most destructive and widespread type of termites in the United States!

• Color: Termites are pale or light-colored; carpenter ants are dark brown, black, or reddish.
• Wood Damage: Termites eat wood, leaving rough, mud-lined tunnels and mud tubes; carpenter ants tunnel into wood, leaving smooth galleries and piles of sawdust.

We don’t recommend DIY wildlife removal. Even if the animal doesn’t seem all that dangerous, all wild animals will lash out when cornered or if they feel threatened.

In addition, we know which animals are protected species and how to legally and humanely escort them out of your home for you.

It varies. Some animals are removed in a single visit, while others (like bats or squirrels) may require several visits and follow-up sealing work. Contact us to get started and we can provide a more formal estimate and scope!
