Termite Season and Risks

Spring marks the beginning of prime termite season, as swarmers emerge to mate and establish new colonies. Unfortunately, these colonies often target vulnerable residential properties. Termites can:

  • Chew through wood, flooring, and wallpaper undetected, 24/7.
  • Compromise the structural stability of a home within several years, depending on the species.
  • Cause $5 billion in property damage annually in the U.S.

Steps to Prevent Termite Infestations

The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) recommends these preventive measures to protect your property:

Moisture Management

  • Eliminate or reduce moisture in and around the home, which termites need to thrive.
  • Repair leaking faucets, water pipes, and exterior AC units.

Structural Repairs

  • Repair fascia, soffits, and rotted roof shingles.
  • Replace weather stripping and loose mortar around basement foundations and windows.

Water Diversion

  • Divert water away from the house through properly functioning downspouts, gutters, and splash blocks.

Inspections and Monitoring

  • Routinely inspect the foundation for signs of mud tubes, uneven or bubbling paint, and wood that sounds hollow when tapped.
  • Monitor all exterior wood areas, including windows, doorframes, and skirting boards, for noticeable changes.

Professional and Routine Maintenance

  • Maintain an 18-inch gap between soil and any wood portions of your home.
  • Consider scheduling a professional inspection annually, as termite damage is not covered by most homeowners’ insurance policies.

Firewood Storage

  • Store firewood at least 20 feet away from the house to avoid attracting termites.
