Identification & Behaviour Of Termites
Termites are eusocial insects that live in colonies with distinct castes – workers, soldiers and reproductive. The queen termite can lay up to 30,000 eggs per year. They tunnel through wood and other cellulose material to feed the colony. They build intricate nests and extensive tunnel systems using chewed wood, soil and saliva.
Termites thrive in a warm environment with adequate water and food sources. They are attracted to structural lumber, paper, cardboard, insulation and even the wood-cellulose in plants. Leaky plumbing or damp accumulation near foundations provides ideal termite habitat.
Risks or Impact on Properties
Termite damage is often invisible in early stages, since colonies tunnel within the wood interior. Once discovered, the structural impacts can be severe. These pests destroy wood from the inside out, which compromises stability. Damaged floor joists, roof rafters or load-bearing walls become unsafe in the long run.
Extensive repairs may involve replacing entire sections of flooring, walls or roofs if the underlying structures are compromised by long-term infestations. Catching termite problems early is key to lessen damage to the home. Ignoring small signs of termites puts structural integrity at risk and increases future repair costs.
Signs of Infestation
Mud tubes | Small mud tunnels are constructed along wooden beams, foundations etc. Mud tubes allow termites to travel to wood sources. |
Wood that sounds hollow when tapped | Termites eat out the insides of it first, leaving only a thin outer layer that sounds hollow. |
Winged termites | Swarming occurs when a mature colony reproduces. Seeing them likely indicates an infested den nearby. |
Blistered exterior paint or siding | Termites tunnel under the wood surface, causing it to break open and blister the paint above. |
Sagging doors or floors | As termites eat away structural wood like floor joists, sagging can occur due to lack of support. |
Any sign of mud tunnel, damaged wood or swarming termites means it is vital to call a professional exterminator for termite control treatment. The longer an infestation goes unchecked, the more severe the damage.

How To Prevent Termite Infestations
While termite treatments should be left to the professionals, there are some DIY tips homeowners can follow to help avoid infestations:
- Eliminate moisture and contact with soil. Fix leaky roofs, pipes, and ensure proper drainage around the home.
- Ventilate damp crawl spaces under properties so area remains dry.
- Store firewood, building scraps, and dead trees far from your home’s perimeter.
- Inspect exterior walls, foundations, attics once per year for early signs like mud tubes or termite swarms. Catch invasions early.
- Consider upgrading to concrete construction rather than wood framing during renovations for dense protection.
Keep in mind termites enter even well-built house in search of food. But following proactive moisture control, cleanliness, and monitoring measures reduces easy access points for them.
Partnering with Green Pest Control’s preventative services also establishes long-lasting barriers around weak home perimeters. Contact us to book an annual inspection and treatment for prevention and safety against termite damage.
