Temecula Termite Control

Early Warning Signs of a Termite Infestation

Identifying termites involves understanding their appearance and behavior. Typically, they are small, light-colored insects with straight antennae and soft bodies. Despite their unassuming size, termites pose a significant threat due to their insatiable appetite for cellulose, the main component of wood.

Signs that termites might be present in your home or office include:

• Swarmers – Termite swarmers are flying insects that emerge from the colony to mate and establish new colonies. If you see many winged insects around windows or lights, it indicates an active termite infestation.
• Discarded wings – After swarmers mate, they shed their wings. If you notice piles of small, transparent wings near windowsills or entry points, termites are active in or around your property.
• Mud tubes – Subterranean termites create mud tubes to move between their colony and a food source. You’ll often find these tubes along foundation walls or in crawl spaces, signaling an active infestation.
• Wood damage – Termites feed on wood, creating hollow, weakened sections in wooden structures. If you notice wood that sounds hollow when tapped or feels soft, termites may be eating away at it from the inside.
• Termite droppings (frass) – Drywood termites leave behind small, pellet-shaped droppings known as frass. These tiny pellets can accumulate near baseboards or furniture and may look similar to sawdust.
• Stuck windows or doors – Termites often infest the frames of doors and windows, causing the wood to swell. This swelling can make opening or closing doors and windows difficult, indicating that termites may be present.
