Termites
Learn more About Termite Control & Extermination
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 $5 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.
Swarmers looking to start a new colony are typically the first sign of termite season as these winged-pests show up inside homes in early spring. To get rid of termites in the home, contact atermite management specialistto address the infestation and recommend a course of proper termite control.
