What Termite Damage Looks Like In Mercedes Homes

Termite damage can be costly in the best cases and downright dangerous in the worst cases. That’s why it’s important to regularly look for the signs of termite activity around your property. When the signs are apparent, it may be too late to avoid the severe damage and costs associated with an infestation. This is why a trained pair of eyes is your best bet for making sure you spot the evidence of termite activity. Here are some of the things we watch out for: 

  • Yard Signs: Termites build mounds or dig elaborate tunnels below-ground to support their colonies. Regularly checking for holes or soil pile-up can clue you into termite activity before they move on to your structures. 
  • Warped Wood: When termites chew through the cores of wooden materials, the surface wood changes due to the different tension. This causes warped or buckling wood, particularly around floorboards and wall panels. 
  • Windows & Doors: Another tell-tale sign of termite damage is if your doors and windows suddenly fit loosely or snugly. 

Keep your home protected from termites long before these signs have a chance to develop. Contact BUGWORKS Termite & Pest Control today to make sure you never have to worry.

The Problems Rodents Can Cause To Properties In Mercedes

Another damaging kind of pest are rodents. They are also widespread, invading homes and businesses alike. They seek out the shelter that our structures provide, not to mention the food they can find inside. Once rodents move in, it doesn’t take long before leading to larger issues. Here are just some of them: 

  • Damage: A rodent’s most defining feature is its ever-growing front teeth. They must file them down to keep them manageable, which means they chew on absolutely everything. 
  • Disease: Rodents are also known to carry illnesses like plague and salmonella. Plus, they can have fleas and ticks, which spread their own conditions. 
  • Population: Rodents have multiple litters of pups per year, meaning the problem quickly grows out of control. This is why it’s so essential to prevent rodents in the first place and promptly call the professionals for prompt elimination.

For help avoiding all of these problems, contact BUGWORKS Termite & Pest Control today.
