Damp Wood Termites

This Termite is seen very often in September and October when we get changes in the temperature and humidity. Home owners call because they see this type of Termite swarming out of the ground by the hundreds or even thousands. The good thing about this Termite if you can say there is anything good about a Termite is that they need very high moisture content in
the wood to survive. In most cases if you have the moisture needed like 30‐40% then your real problem is a leak in your home. The first thing is to fix the leak and most times this will solve your problem and no treatment is necessary.

These Termites will range from 1/8th" to 1" in length and the flying or swarming Termites are often seen around the exterior lighting of homes.

Most times it won't be necessary to treat for this type of Termite. Just fix your moisture problem and remove any of the infested wood. If as a homeowner you still want to do a treatment just for your piece of mind we can do a treatment with the product Boracare.
