Termites Kill a Home

 

Termites are living biological organisms that first infest and then digest the skeletal members of residential buildings. Just like cancer, they are hard to get rid of and they spread quickly.

Many times people aren’t even aware they have cancer until it’s too late. By the time physical symptoms occur, the cancer has spread and treatment is difficult. Similarly, you may not even be aware of termites in your home until it’s too late.

TCP reports

Just because you may not actually see visible signs of a termite infestation or they disappear for a time, it does not mean they are not there or went away.

Termites DO NOT just go away. If left alone, they will continue to propagate and thrive until the host body is wholly consumed. You must be vigilant and have your house checked every year for termites.

Understanding Termite Damage

 

Understanding that termites are a biological threat to your home, that behaves much like cancer, you can make decisions that will lead to long-term solutions rather than costly quick-fix, Band-Aid options.

First, you must separate the symptoms and signs of a termite infestation from the actual infestation itself. 

Then, you need to go after the root of the problem. Once you’ve routed out the source, then you can repair the damage and set up a preventative treatment against further infestations. Click here for common symptoms and signs of a termite infestation in your home.

Second, use whole-structure information of symptoms and signs to identify the source. Making decisions for termite control based on limited findings in just one room or one area of your house would be as effective as trying to come up with a treatment plan for your entire body based on the symptoms one hand is experiencing.

Be sure to have your entire home thoroughly inspected before considering options for termite control.

Third, formulate a termite control service strategy that thoroughly addresses the source of the termite infestation and not just the symptoms and signs.

  • A detailed assessment of the whole house
