Termite Infestation Warning Signs
These are some warning signs that will signal that a termite infestation is present in your home or business on Long Island. Should you find any of these signs in and around your residence of business, contact Top Quality Exterminating immediately to schedule an appointment.
Termite Swarmers: Usually leave colonies one or two times per year, either spring or during the fall. Termite swarms that form around the exterior of a home may be missed by the homeowner since the swarm is a brief event during the morning or afternoon.
Discarded Wings: Evidence of swarming termites may take place inside or outside of a home or business as mature termites depart the colony to begin a new colony. After swarmers have taken flight, they shed their wings, where homeowners may discover small piles of wings around their home's foundation and window sills or in spider webs.
Termite Droppings: After the consumption of wood, termites often leave behind droppings or frass, which indicates a nearby termite infestation.
Mud Tubes: Termites build mud tubes (or shelter tubes), which also serve as a bridge between the colony and the wood they consume. Mud Tubes are made of tiny pieces of soil, wood and debris. They are used as protection for the colony from predators and help conserve moisture.
Wood Damage: Termites damage wood according to a distinctive pattern and these wood loving insects will usually leave behind nothing but the grain of the wood. The damage may be hidden inside the walls of a home or business since termites destroy wood from the inside out.
