Subterranean Termite Control Near Me
If you’ve asked yourself, “Is there any subterranean termite control near me?” then look no further. Arete Pest Control has the tools necessary to eliminate these pests.
What do subterranean termites look like? Some of these pests are creamy white. Worker and soldier subterranean termites don’t have wings. Workers and soldiers typically have cream-colored bodies with a brown head, and the soldiers’ heads are typically darker in color.
Swarmer termites fly away from a crowded colony to form a new colony. Subterranean termite swarmers are dark brown to black in color. They have two sets of wings that are nearly identical in length. These termites typically swarm in fall, spring and summer during the daylight hours. If you see them swarming outdoors, you probably have a termite colony outside. If you see them swarming inside your home, you likely have a colony in your home or beneath the home. Subterranean termites will make mud tubes around your property. They eat wood from the inside out. They make clicking, rattling and rustling sounds as they move through wood and feed on wood. A wall infested with subterranean termites will often sound hollow when you tap on it. If you leave the infestation untreated, the termites will eventually eat the walls, ceilings and floors until they become thin. Ceilings and floors may even collapse due to termite damage.
Baby termites look like small white ants. If you believe you’ve seen them on your property, call Arete for a termite inspection. We will identify baby termites and search for signs of mature termites, too. Our technician will explain the best possible treatment method for your termite problem.
