Be wary of subterranean termites eroding your house | 安全殺蟲公司

We got lots of rain this winter and spring。 Be wary of subterranean termites eroding your house.

Subterranean termites are a common type of termite that typically build their colonies underground and require contact with soil to survive. They can enter your house through various means, including:

Soil-to-wood contact: Termites can enter your home if there is direct contact between the soil and wooden structures, such as foundation walls, support posts, or wooden siding. They construct mud tubes to protect themselves while moving from the soil to the wood.

Cracks and gaps: Termites can exploit small cracks or gaps in the foundation, concrete slabs, or walls to gain access to your home. They can squeeze through tiny openings as thin as a credit card.

Plumbing and utility entry points: Termites can gain entry through gaps around plumbing pipes, utility lines, or electrical conduits that lead into your home. They can follow these entry points to reach wooden structures.

Regular inspections: Schedule regular termite inspections with BLUE CHIP PEST CONTROL, INC., a professional pest control company. Early detection can help identify termite activity and prevent significant damage.

If you suspect termite activity or notice signs such as mud tubes, wood damage, or discarded wings, it is important to contact us, a pest control professional, for a thorough assessment and appropriate treatment：
