What Are the Risks of Termites?

A termite infestation results in significant property damage. Your home is often your biggest asset, so extensive damage can make life difficult for you and your family for years to come.

The repairs needed to fix the damage caused by termites can be expensive—and the longer termites are able to cause damage, the costlier these repairs can be. The cost to repair or replace wood damaged by termites is usually anywhere from 3-10 times as expensive as a termite treatment. The longer you wait to take care of termite infestation, the more expensive it will be in the long run. Basically, the sooner you use a termite treatment method to exterminate any termites, the better it will be for both your property and your wallet.

What Causes Termite Infestation?

Local geography and weather increase the chances of your property attracting termites. While you can’t change these things, there are other risk factors more in your control.

Termites are attracted to wood, as they feed on its cellulose, so wooden structures can attract an infestation. Consider getting rid of nearby stumps and making sure firewood isn’t stacked too close to your home. Moisture is another risk factor. Everything from leaks in your pipes to a lack of drainage around your home can attract termites. Eliminating these problems will lessen your chances for termites. Lastly, cracks in your foundation or siding can be an open door for termites.

Termite Control Treatment Applications

Rodding and drilling are two termite treatment methods. Drilling means drilling into your foundation in order to put pesticide in place; with rodding, a trench for pesticide is dug in the soil around an infested area.
