How termites make themselves at home in your house?
How Do Termites get in?
Because termites need moisture and have a low tolerance to air and light, they live underground, attacking a home from below.
A loose mortar joint, a minute space around a drain pipe, or a settlement crack in the basement is all they need to gain entry.
1 By building ingenious mudtubes, termites can cross many feet of concrete, brick, cinder block, treated wood, or metal termite shields, making it possible to reach the upper floors of a structure.
2 Termites eat wood from the inside out, defying detection for years while doing extensive damage.
