A lot of Fort Worth home and business owners apply the cliche of “out of sight, out of mind” to pest management. They assume that if they don’t see insects and creatures on their property, they don’t exist. Unfortunately, this couldn’t be further from the truth. Due to their size, activity periods, behavioral patterns, hiding places, and other factors, many critters can start an invasion under your nose. If it’s a species that can reproduce with speed, you’ll really be in trouble. Before you know it, your building or belongings could be ruined. Also, you might become sick because of a pest’s germs or bites.
Termites can take down whole structures, as they are wood-destroying bugs. They rack up a bill of five billion dollars each year for Americans. It’s hard to recover from their work. These insects pose other threats that aren’t talked about as much. Learn more, and how you can prevent them from All-Safe Pest & Termite.
There are several termite species. Generally, colonies consist of three groups: workers, soldiers, and swarmers. The most prevalent worker termites are white or grayish-white. Being dainty in size, they’re 0.12 of an inch long. As their title indicates, shredding the wood is their primary duty. Yellow-brown soldiers with prominent jaws and rectangular heads defend them. These two classes stay out of view under the soil. Above ground, they surround damp spaces and live behind walls. This is why termites are called “silent killers.” They can survive for up to two years, while queens are able to sustain for about a decade.
The ½ of an inch long winged swarmers must flee the nest in spring to reproduce and create fresh colonies. Given this, they are the only specimens you’ll see. Check around the lights, as they are attracted to them. Swarmer sightings are a definite sign of infestation. Other notes are:
As termites populate, bases and walls will become weak and unstable. Wood could collapse, which is obviously a dangerous situation. Your home or business may be uninhabitable for a period. Health-wise, these insects aren’t known to transmit disease. However, they can cause allergy flare-ups.
