Get Rid ofTermites for Good
There are over 40 different species of termites in the U.S., most of which can cause extensive damage to your home or business. It’s estimated that a homeowner who discovers termites will spend an average of $3,000 in repairs (which is typically not covered by homeowner’s insurance). The two most common species of termite in Southern California are Subterranean Termites and Drywood Termites.
Let us help you get rid of your termite issues once and for all.
Drywood Termites
Drywood Termites, otherwise known as “western drywood termites” can be found along coastal regions. These are one of the most destructive breed of termites found in Southern California. They prefer wood with low moisture, and often spread from infested home decor, furniture, and other wooden items.
Subterranean Termites
Subterranean Termites like to inhabit earth and soil, and then will migrate to a wood source near the ground or foundation of your home throughout spring and early summer. Subterranean season usually peaks between July and September, but can reach as far as November.
More About Termites
Termites are small, eusocial insects that belong to the order Isoptera. They are known for their ability to digest cellulose, which is found in wood and other plant material, and are therefore considered important decomposers in many ecosystems.
They are divided into three groups: subterranean, drywood, and dampwood. Subterranean termites live in soil and build mud tubes to reach their food source, while drywood termites live inside dry wood and do not require contact with soil. Dampwood termites live in moist wood and do not typically cause damage to structures.
Southern California Termites are highly social insects that live in colonies and have a caste system, which includes workers, soldiers, and reproductive individuals. Workers are responsible for building and maintaining the nest, as well as foraging for food. Soldiers protect the colony from predators. Reproductive individuals include the queen and king, who are responsible for producing and laying eggs.
