Drywood Termites and Treatment

Drywood Termite Problems

Drywood termites are active all year long but are most active April through July.

Termites love to eat, they literally do it 24/7, with their scissor like jaws they feast on wooden structures. If not identified and treated in time they can cause hundreds to thousands of dollars in home repairs.

Unlike, subterranean termites, drywood termites do not need moist soil to survive. Instead they get all the moisture they need from the wood they consume and the humidity in the air. 

Termites can infest a single area or infest an entire structure, which is why it is important to have a professional termite inspector do a thorough inspection. Black Knight Termite and Pest Control has highly trained inspectors that are referred to by Thermal Heat Pest for your complete termite inspection. An inspection can be done on home, commercial properties, or other structures like sheds, barns, separate garages, etc. Every structure and situation is different, by choosing the right professional they can help guide you in choosing what type of treatment is right for you. Treatment for drywood termites can range from foam injection, fumigation, to Thermal Heat Treatment, depending on the situation of the infestation.
