How to Determine if You Have Termites

Unfortunately, termites often cause extensive damage before a homeowner realizes there is a problem. Termites will do their damage in areas of the home that you do not see, but there are signs that you may notice around your property

• Discarded Wings
  After termites swarm to start a new colony or build a new nest, they will pull off their wings, and leave them in a pile.
• Mud Tubes
  Termites will build mud tubes up the side of your foundation to give them protection as they go into your home. These tubes are about the size of a pencil.
• Wood Damage
  Wood damage is another sign—you may first notice this as squeaky floors or damage in long grooves.

It is important to act as soon as you think you may termites on your property. The longer you wait to schedule a termite inspection, the more damage the termites may do to your property. A termite colony can eat up to a pound of wood a day or through an entire home in just two years. The more damage they do, the costlier the repairs. Schedule a free inspection today. If you have termites, our technician will present you with a written estimate and treatment plan along with a list of repairs that need to be completed. EcoTek’s turnkey solution will treat for termite, complete the cleanup and repairs and continue to monitor for any possible activity in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do termites cause my property to drop?

Termites will decrease your property value because they can damage the structural integrity of your home. However, once you treat for termites and repair the damage that was done, your property will return to its previous value. You should keep a copy of the treatment and what damages were repaired.

Can I prevent termites?

There are a few ways that you can prevent termites. Be sure that all the wood you use for structures in your yard are made from treated wood. Do not put mulch against the foundation of your home. Keep the bushes and trees trimmed back and away from your home.

How do termites damage my property?

Termites will damage your property by eating through the wood framing structures in your home. They can eat through the floor joists, subfloor and wall supports. They can also eat through the casings around the electrical wiring, which can cause a fire hazard.

What can I expect with a termite inspection?

Termite inspections take between 30 to 60 minutes. The technician will need access to a variety of areas in your home including your crawlspace and attic to check for termite activity. Once the inspection is complete, you will receive a report either stating that there is no activity or a written estimate with a treatment plan and list of repairs that need to be done.
