Waldorf Termite Treatment

Termite

How To Identify A Termite Infestation

If there is one Termite, there are many others nearby. Termites tend to swarm in colonies and most likely are building that colony underground on your property. Termites create their homes with a mixture of wood and soil which will end up looking like small mud tunnels on or around your Waldorf home. If you see even one Termite, you are in need of a Termite extermination.

Hazards of Not Treating Termites

Termites are the pest immediately thought of when you think of a pest that does damage physically to your home. Termites feed, breed, and live within the wood of your home and will do costly damage to your home. If left untreated, they will begin to eat away at your home until the structure will no longer be sound. Treating a Termite infestation early on will save you a lot of time, money, and worry for yours and your family's safety. Calling a Termite exterminator to your Waldorf home is the only way to ensure your house will remain safe from Termite damage.

1) What are the signs of a termite infestation?

The first step in effective termite control is knowing when you have a termite problem. There are a few signs that will indicate a termite infestation. 
  • You see a termite or their signs. Some varieties of termite are easier to spot than others. You have a chance of seeing drywood termites, for example. Subterranean, the most common termites in Waldorf, is rarely seen. You will, however, see the mud tunnels subterranean termites use to get around. 
  • A large termite infestation will give the cause a musty or mildewy smell. If there is an unpleasant smell throughout your home, you may have a termite problem. 
  • Wood cracking, being riddled with holes or tunnels, or sounding hollow are clear signs of a termite infestation. 
If you notice any of the signs mentioned above, contact termite removal specialists right away. Termite damage can be dangerous, and they need to be eradicated by professionals. Barefoot Pest Control is your source for the best termite extermination in Waldorf, MD.   

2) How large do termite colonies get?

Termite colonies can vary in size. Some new colonies may only have two termites. But, it is much more common for colonies to have hundreds or thousands of members. Some huge colonies can have one million or more termites.  Termite exists in a caste system. This means that every termite in the colony has a job. There are queens, workers, soldiers, nymphs, reproductive, and immature termites. In this, termite colonies are very similar to beehives. Yet, termite colonies can get much bigger and cause much more damage to your home.  

3) How much can I expect to pay to fix termite damage?

The total amount that fixing termite damage costs depends on how much damage was done. Obviously, more damage will mean a greater cost to you. This is why it is so important to notice signs of termites and have them removed as quickly as possible. Not only does this keep the pests out of your home, but it also saves you money in the long-run.  The average cost to fix termite damage typically ranges from $300-$800. But, if the damage is extensive or if load-bearing beams were damaged, you can expect to pay well over $1000. Throughout the United States, termites cost homeowners about $5 billion annually.   

4) Do termites just go away?

Unfortunately, no, termites will not just go away. Once they have established a colony in or near your home, they will stay there permanently. The only way to ensure the termites are completely gone is to have a professional termite control company remove them.   

5) Do termites eat only wood?

Termites are famous for eating wood. And, that reputation is accurate. Termites primarily eat wood. But, there are also detritus feeders. This means they also eat dead plants and trees. Therefore, you may find termite damage to any object that contains cellulose. Paper, plastic, and drywall are all substances found in our homes that termites will happily eat.
