What Is the Difference Between Drywood Termites and Subterranean Termites?
If you suspect that your home has a termite infestation, you may be a little confused about where to start. A good place to begin is to determine if your home has an infestation of traditional subterranean termites or if the colony of insects is actually comprised of drywood termites.
The main difference is that the subterranean termites need soil to burrow under your home, whereas the drywood variety can make a home of any wood and swarm at certain times of the year.
How Are the Two Types of Termites Similar?
Both feed on wood and convert it into cellulose material for consumption, which can cause extensive damage to the wood in your home. Although subterranean termites tend to cause a great deal of damage to foundations, studs, and walls, drywood termites are just as likely to be found in your furniture or in books.

Have Questions?
Our Team Has The Answers.
-
To ensure that the treatment is being done properly, the homeowner should observe the treatment process. Unless the homeowner is chemically sensitive, there should not be any adverse health problems associated with a treatment done correctly. Ask questions of the pest control technicians. Keep track of how long it takes them to do the job.
-
Termites move randomly through the soil searching for a source of food (wood). They do not have the ability to know exactly where your house is. So, if your next-door neighbor treats his home for termites, your house isn’t automatically the termites’ next lunch. No, your house does not need to be treated; but, if there are active termite infestations in your neighborhood, it is a good idea to have it inspected.
-
The best thing you can do is to be involved and observant in the inspection process. For example if you request an inspection and the inspector doesn’t inspect obvious areas such as your garage, attic, basement, etc., then you may need to consult an additional company. Don’t be afraid to ask questions.
