TERMITE IDENTIFICATION
Termites are a major concern for homeowners in the Southeast and especially in South Carolina. Wood structures are at high risk but don’t think they’re the only ones. Termites are capable of navigating through plaster, metal siding and other materials to feed on cabinets, floors, ceilings and wooden furniture inside your home. Recognizing the signs of termite infestation could save you thousands of dollars in repairs. Termites can feast on your home for quite a while before you see any visible damage. Find out what to look for.
SIGNS YOU MAY HAVE TERMITES:
MUD TUBES on foundation walls, exterior walls, wood beams or in crawlspaces.
CRACKED or bubbling paint.
A TEMPORARY SWARM of winged insects in your home or from the soil around your home.
DISCARDED WINGS from swarmers.
WOOD that sounds hollow when tapped.
TERMITES CAUSE ABOUT $5 BILLION
IN DAMAGES, EVERY YEAR.
That is more damage each than fires, tornadoes, and earthquakes combined. Making matters worse, most homeowner's insurance policies do not cover termite damage. Termites are usually invisible, except for the sudden appearance of large termite swarms as the weather warms. The appearance of a swarm indoors is often one of the first signs of an infestation for a homeowner. Don’t wait for the damage to be done. Take the steps below to protect your home.
WOOD TO EARTH

Minimize or eliminate the use of wood mulch.

Keep crawlspaces and basements clear of wood debris, newspapers and excess moisture.
-
Keep wooden fences, planter boxes and other wood items at least 2 feet from your foundation.

WOOD STRATEGIES

Install shrubs, mulch and other landscaping at least 2 feet from the foundation of your home.
-
Never bury wood scraps in backfill during construction.
-
Keep firewood, lumber and wood scraps elevated off the ground and stored away from your home.
-
Always use treated lumber in the construction of decking or other exterior home features.
​
GROUND LEVEL
-
Slope soil away from the house so surface water drains easily.
-
Clean gutters and downspouts and keep splash blocks in place.
​
EXCESSIVE MOISTURE
-
Fix plumbing leaks anywhere in the house, as they can cause moisture to accumulate.

Place sprinkler heads away from your foundation and make sure that they don’t wet the walls.

Make sure all air-conditioner/heater/dryer condensation and sump pump discharges are well away from your home's foundation.
