There are at least five different types of termites hiding and
eating around this planet, but the most dangerous termite to the structure of
your home is the subterranean termite–alive and well here in the Nashville
area.
These destructive little creatures could be living in your
walls, floors and ceilings, using their sharp jaws to weaken the structure of
your home at this very moment. In fact, termites cause more
than $5 billion in property damage each year across the U.S., according to the
National Pest Management Association (NPMA) - and more home damage every year than
earthquakes, fires, and storms combined.
How can such a tiny creature cause so
much damage? By its very nature the termite is stealthy, burying
itself through tunnels and structures and eating as it goes–hiding from
unsuspecting homeowners until it’s too late. Your home could be hosting hundreds of termites, all feasting on the delicacies your home
provides. Groups of termites have successfully collapsed structures with their incessant gnawing.
Rather than compromise your home and
pay hundreds even thousands to replace and repair the damage termites can do, professional
pest control services can provide termite treatment for termite control or even
termite extermination.
Termite and pest control companies like
Marigold Pest Services of Nashville provide integrated pest services to protect
your home and can educate you on the best ways to keep termites away. Look for Integrated
Termite Service, Barrier
Treatments and Pre-Construction
Treatments as just a few of the ways you can stay
a step ahead of termites and their damaging ways.
