PROTECTING HOMES FROM TERMITES

September 19, 20251 min read

Mice and rats have also been known to chew through wood around the outside of the house and chew sheet rock, wood, insulation and even wires inside the house. Carpenter ants hollow out wood to build nests.

4 Reasons Termites Are The Worst

  1. Carpenter ants are a nuisance in a home, but termites are much, much worse. Carpenter ants result in damage of hundreds of millions each year. But subterranean termites lead to damage in the billions. The difference is huge.

  2. Subterranean termites, as their name implies, live underground. They keep a low profile and nibble the wood from below. You could see evidence of other pests, such as carpenter bees or rodent droppings. But termites are often out of view. That’s how they can set up residence in a home for years without anyone knowing they’re there.

  3. Subterranean termites not only chew wood  they eat it. This causes two big problems. For one thing, they do not leave sawdust in their wake. Second, they do not come inside searching for food. Your home is the food. You can’t cut them off by depriving food.
