Signs of infestation
✓ Pencil-wide mud tubes on slabs, walls or piers
✓ Hollow-sounding or blistered wood
✓ Winged termites swarming near lights in spring
✓ Discarded wings on window sills
Risks
Termites can cause costly structural damage, which standard homeowners insurance often doesn’t cover. Catching them early matters.
Prevention tips
✓ Keep mulch and soil off siding and away from the slab edge
✓ Fix leaks and grade soil away from the house
✓ Store firewood off the ground and away from walls
✓ Book a yearly termite inspection
