Termites

Termites are the silent destroyer and they eat constantly. You might not know it, but they could be feeding inside the walls of your home or office. Termites thrive on cellulose so not only is your building structure in danger, but also your wood furniture and paper documents.

It takes experience and a trained eye to locate termite problems. Having an inspection can help you stave of costly repairs if not checked. You might have noticed some mud tubes on your walls. Don’t panic! Call Hart’s immediately.

There are a variety of different types of termites. Drywood termites live inside the wood that they consume and are most likely found in the walls or furniture. They grow to about 3/8 of an inch. Colonies can have many thousands of members.

Subterranean termites live in the soil and produce mounds. Underneath the mounds are elaborate tunnel systems. They travel to the surface to get food. Their sizes range from 1/8 inch to 1 inch which include workers, solders and reproductives. Colonies can have many millions of members and can cause the most damage.

Colonies that have matured may produce winged termites in the spring. They are usually found around doors and windows. If you see wings that have been shed, that would indicate that they have completed mating and are on to the next phase of building a new colony somewhere.

Termites like moisture so it is important to check for any leaky pipes. Termites like food, so keep lumber and firewood away from the house. As a rule, make sure wood on you house doesn’t contact the soil. Check wood decks and fences for any damage. Also, seal up any cracks or crevices around the outside of your home or building.

Schedule a free inspection from Hart’s Extermination Company. Only licensed professionals can control termite problems.

Testimonials
  • Mark has to be the nicest most honest guy I’ve ever met. He has been doing pest control at my house for years and we just adore him.

    Funny A. – San Clemente, CA
  • “I had rats in my attic. They were keeping me up at night! I called and talked to Mark. I’m a single woman, home owner and I’ve been over-charged too often by home service companies.

    Debbie R. – Hendersonville, TN
  • “Mark came out at our arranged time and treated the areas locally for a fraction of the price that the other company wanted for tenting.

    Amanda L – Laguna Hills, CA
  • “Thing is, my friend is P-S-Y-C-H-O-T-I-C about cockroaches. I mean, she went so bloody hysterical while he was adding the last slice of salami to his sandwich that I thought the neighbors were going to call the cops.

    Jesseca S. – Santa Monica, CA
  • “We live in Oceanside, a little in the boonies and have Coyotes, and raccoon and possum’s, rabbits, moles and squirrels all over our property bringing in fleas and we fight a losing battle every summer
