Why Home Inspections Are Important For Termite Control

Have you been thinking about buying a new home, or selling your current property, or maybe both? Before you buy a home, you’ll want a professional to inspect your new property for signs of termite damage, just the same way that anyone buying your home will want to know if your home has ever been visited by these wood-destroying insects. Getting a home inspection done by a professional is a wise decision; one that you can do preemptively, before your home sells so that buyers can be assured that your home is free from termites and damage caused by termites!

What are termites? Termites are social insects that live in a colony. From this colony, the foragers venture out to find a wood source to eat. They chew away at the inside of wooden timbers, sometimes in nature and sometimes in our homes, depending on where they’ve built their colony. For termite images and more information on termites (as well as a picture of a termite to help you identify these pests on your own!) check out our termite identification page.

What are the benefits of a home inspection when it comes to termites?

• Find a termite problem before it gets out of control.
• Allow termite control treatments to be done immediately to reduce further damage.
• Assure home buyers that your home has no signs of termite damage and that your property is structurally sound.
• Help you sleep better at night, knowing your home is free from termites.
• Recognize areas in your home that may be inviting to termites so that these can be fixed.
