Termites are the Hidden Threats that Can Destroy Your Home
Termites often go undetected until significant damage has already occurred. These silent invaders feast on timber, causing structural damage that can cost thousands to repair.
Common signs around you property that you need a termite inspection include:
Hollow-sounding timber
Termites eat wood from the inside out, leaving a thin outer shell that sounds hollow when tapped.
Visible termite wings or frass (droppings)
Discarded wings indicate swarmers have entered your home, while frass is a byproduct of drywood termites chewing through timber.
Mud tunnels on walls or foundations
These are protective pathways built by subterranean termites to travel between their nest and food sources while avoiding light and predators.
Tight-fitting doors or windows
Termite activity increases moisture in wood, causing it to swell and make doors or windows harder to open.
