Termite Pest Inspection in North Carolina

Termite Damage:
Undetected termite damage can lead to major structural damage that results in expensive home repairs. When left unresolved, termite damage can lead to cracks in the wood and plaster, sagging floors, and loosened wood trim, siding, or wallboards. Because termites hollow the wood from the inside out, instead of breaking through the wood, damage can occur over a long period of time before it is discovered, which is why regular termite pest inspection is vital. No matter what separates the wood in your home from the soil, including concrete slabs, termites can still cause a lot of damage without regular termite inspection in Charlotte NC.
Common signs of termite infestation are:
- Discarded wings, typically near windowsills and doors
- Swarming termites
- Mud tunnels on the foundation of a house
- Wood that is soft and sounds hollow when tapped
