How to get rid of termites
Identifying termites presence should start with a little
looking around. You may notice rotted wood or damaged wood. You may also see
the termites during warmer months when they come out of the wood. You may not
actually be able to see damage, so tapping or drilling with a probe of some sort
on the suspected infested area can help you to find hollow spots where termites
have been.
Once you have confirmed you have termites you need to get to
work at getting rid of them. It is best to have a professional take care of
getting rid of them. However, there are some things you can do to help. Fixing
outside faucets that are worn out or leaky will help to keep moisture spots
away, which provide ample ground for termites to live. Additionally, clean and
repair gutters to help keep moisture away from your house. Stack firewood or
other wood products off the ground. Fill in cracks or other openings on the
outside of your home.
