How do i know if i have termites in my home ?

Termites, by their nature, are hard to find. Thriving in hard-to-reach, inaccessible areas, they will eat your home from the inside out. 

Although there may be only a few indications of termite activity, take a closer look at these warning signs:

• Watch for the “swarm” of winged termites during the day or evening and often after rainfall from February to March, in most areas of the country.

• Check in or around windows and doorframes for termite evidence (wings, etc.)
• Look for “mud tunnels” in or around the foundation, under windows and on walls.
• Watch for pin-sized holes in the wall and woodwork where termites exited during the swarm.

• Tap baseboards and floors to see if they sound hollow — a possible sign of termite infestation.

• Examine window sills and walls for dead termites or termite wings.
• Blistering on sheetrock.
