Signs of a Termite Problem

When termites feed on wood, they eat from the inside out, and the outer surface usually remains intact. This secretive nature makes it possible for termites to remain undetected for years. While damage to wood may not be readily apparent, homeowners should know about other signs of a termite infestation.

Mud tubes on your home’s foundation are a significant clue that subterranean termites exist. These termites build tunnels out of mud to travel between their underground nests and food sources. Piles of discarded insect wings, bubbling or uneven paint, or hollow wood, when tapped on, are some other signs to watch out for.

Dry wood termites can be tough to detect. Keep an eye out for small, round holes on the surface of wooden objects. You may also see piles of sawdust-like material around your home. This material is termite excrement.

Since these signs are easy to miss, having your home inspected by a professional is a good idea. The National Pest Management Association recommends getting a termite inspection every one to three years.
