Termites
Reticulitermes flavipes
How to Identify
– Look for mud tubes on foundation walls or piers.
– Watch for damaged wood that sounds hollow.
– Check for discarded wings near windows or lights.
– Notice soft or sagging trim and floorboards.
Health Risks
No direct human health risk; causes severe structural damage to framing, siding, and joists — estimated $5B+ in annual US losses.
Termites don’t hurt people or pets. They cause big, costly damage to house wood.
Our Treatment Method
Perimeter liquid barrier or in-ground bait-station system; annual monitoring and re-inspection by licensed pest professional.
We use liquid barriers or bait stations around the home. We inspect crawl spaces and bayou-side yards closely.
Prevention Tips
– Keep firewood and lumber piles at least 20 feet from the foundation and off the ground.
– Fix leaky faucets, gutters, and downspouts — termites require constant moisture.
– Eliminate wood-to-soil contact on decks, fence posts, and siding.
– Remove excess mulch, leaf litter, and cellulose debris from foundation beds.
– Schedule a professional inspection every 1–2 years, especially for homes over 10 years old.
– Keep firewood and lumber at least twenty feet away.
– Fix roof and gutter leaks to remove water.
– Keep soil and mulch pulled back from siding.
– Have a pro inspect every one to two years.
