Look for signs like mud tubes on exterior walls, which subterranean termites use to travel. Wood damage is often hidden and can resemble water damage, with the wood sounding hollow when tapped. Termite droppings or frass, which look like small, wood-colored pellets, and discarded wings from swarmers are also indicators.

ommon types include subterranean termites, which build mud tubes and typically nest in the soil; drywood termites, which infest dry wood; and dampwood termites, which prefer moist and decaying wood. Identification often depends on the climate, location of your home, and the type of wood damage.

Termites can cause significant structural damage over time, potentially costing thousands of dollars in repairs. The rate of damage depends on the size of the colony; larger colonies can cause more rapid and extensive damage.

While there are DIY treatments available, professional treatment is usually more effective, especially for extensive infestations. Termites can be difficult to eradicate completely without professional tools and expertise.

Regular inspections, reducing moisture and wood-to-ground contact around your home, and maintaining bait stations or chemical barriers are key. It’s also important to address any leaks or moisture problems in your home promptly.
