Eastern Subterranean termites are swarming right now, and a lot of people think thatโs when the problem beginsโฆ itโs not.
Whatโs really happening:
โข The colony has likely been active for 5 years or longer
โข The queen is producing termites every 4 seconds
โข Theyโre feeding on your home 24/7 from the inside out
โข The nest itself could be up to 50 yards away underground
Swarmers are simply them trying to expand โ meaning theyโre already established nearby.
Early signs to watch for:
โข Small flying termites inside or around your home
โข Piles of wings near windowsills or entry points
โข Mud tubes along the foundation
โข Wood that sounds hollow when tapped
The sooner you catch it, the easier (and cheaper) it is to handle.
