What To Do If I Have Termites?

Unsure if you have termites near your home? Explore the following common signs of termites then give our team a call for proper extermination.

Common Signs Of Termites:

Swarmers

• During mating season, winged termites emerge and swarm in search of a mate. This is one of the most common ways to identify termites on your property.
  

Mud Tubes

• Helping termites travel from one place to another, mud tubes can be seen on the outside of homes and identify where termites may be entering.
  

Hollowed Wood Sound

• If termites have been invading your home for a while, your wood may sound hollow when tapped. Call an expert immediately if you find this to be the case.
  

Galleries or Damaged Wood

• Look for galleries, which are small holes running along the wood grain, identifying where termites are entering and exiting. While spotting galleries may take an expert’s eye, noticing damaged wood is also crucial to your home’s safety. Call a termite exterminator in mid-Missouri if you notice damaged wood in your Missouri home.
