How Do You Know Your Home Has Termites?

Unfortunately, determining if your home has a termite problem is often difficult. This is because these pests often remain hidden from plain sight and tend to build their colonies underground or within building structures. Additionally, termites consume wood from the inside out, which means the damage they cause may not be immediately noticeable.

However, there are signs you can watch for that will let you know you ought to call a professional for termite control. 

These include but are not limited to:

  • Winged termites (called “swarmers”) flying inside or around your home, especially in large numbers
  • Piles of frass (termite droppings), which will resemble coffee grounds or sawdust
  • Small piles of dead termites or their wings under or around window sills, doorways, or light fixtures
  • Pencil-sized mud tubes on your foundation walls or exterior concrete walls
  • Wooden structures that sound hollow when you knock on them
  • Bubbling or buckling paint

Commonly Asked Questions

What are the common types of termites found in Virginia?

In Virginia, the most common types of termites are the Eastern Subterranean Termite, Formosan Termite, and Drywood Termite. Each type has different habits and nesting preferences, which can affect how they invade homes.

How can I prevent termites from infesting my home?

Preventing termite infestations involves several strategies, such as maintaining proper drainage around your foundation, reducing moisture levels in and around your home, sealing cracks and openings in walls and foundations, and storing firewood away from your house.

Are there any natural remedies for termite control?

Some natural remedies include nematodes, which are microscopic worms that feed on termites, and boric acid, which can be used as a bait. However, the effectiveness of these methods can vary and may not be a substitute for professional treatment.

How often should I have my home inspected for termites?

It is generally recommended to have your home inspected for termites at least once a year, especially if you live in an area known for termite activity. Regular inspections can help catch infestations early.

What should I do if I suspect a termite infestation?

If you suspect a termite infestation, it's important to contact a pest control professional for a thorough inspection. They can assess the situation and recommend appropriate treatment options.

Do termites only infest wooden structures?

While termites primarily feed on wood, they can also damage other cellulose-based materials, including paper, cardboard, and some types of insulation. Therefore, they can pose a risk to various areas of your home.
