Termites Love To Devour Tasty Siding
No one knowingly hangs a sign on their front door saying: “Termites Welcome Here!”
But — unfortunately, most Houston homes have conditions that practically beg termites to invade.
One of those “welcome” signs for termites is excess moisture in the structure. This is a common problem — one study found that 88% of all homes have one or more moisture problems.
Some common problems the study found include: improperly drained air conditioners and downspouts, leaks in the roof, windows, and gutters, poor drainage around the foundation, and sprinklers spraying water onto the side of homes.
Excess moisture attracts termites and many other wood-destroying pests, so fix these today. Don’t invite termites to move in!
Here are some important steps to taketo discourage these home-destroying pests.
• Do not allow shrubs or vines to even partially block any air vents.
• Make sure no wood in and around your home is directly contacting the soil. Termites can invade wooden fences, trellises, and flower planters too, and then use these hidden routes to enter your home.
• Remove pieces of wood, roots, and cardboard buried or lying on the soil.
• Keep wood piles away from homes and garages and ideally off the ground on racks designed for wood piles.
• Have us professionally inspect all potential termite problem areas on a regular basis ( at least once per year), and treat if needed.
We can save you money by catching an infestation early, before extensive damage is done, and our inspections and treatments can help prevent termites from ever getting started in your home.
Remember — the best time to stop termites is before they get in! Phone us today for your termite check-up.
