Termite Control in Seadrift
In the Texas Coastal Region, there are only two kinds of homes: the ones that have termites and the ones that are going to get them. Protect your property investment with our expert termite control.
Texas Termite Zone
Texas Sits in the "Heavy" Termite Zone
Termites love the humid, damp weather we get across South, Central, and East Texas. That climate lets them spread fast, and a hidden colony can run up serious repair bills before anyone notices.
Termite Facts for Texas Homeowners
Two Kinds of Homes
Here is how we put it around the office. In the Texas Coastal Region, you either have termites or you are going to get them.
Billion Dollar Damage
Subterranean termites do $1 to $7 billion in damage across the United States every year, and that bill rarely falls under a homeowners' insurance policy.
Daily Destruction
One colony eats roughly a pound of wood a day, and it never stops to rest.
Termite Threats
Why Termite Control Matters
Termites rack up more than $5 billion in property damage across the US each year. Keep your home off that list.
They Work Around the Clock
Termites feed day and night, and you often miss them until the damage shows.
Damage to Your Home's Frame
They can eat into the framing that keeps your home or business standing.
Act Early
The sooner you catch them, the less damage you face.
Prevention Pays Off
Treatment and monitoring stop the repairs before they happen.
Know Your Enemy
Types of Termites in South Texas
Termite species differ around the country. In our part of Texas, subterranean termites pose the biggest threat to your home.
Subterranean Termites
The most destructive termites we deal with. Their colonies can number in the millions, and they push through cracks as small as 1/32 of an inch to reach the inside of your home.
- Most likely to attack your home
- Colonies that reach the millions
- Enter through foundation cracks and gaps
- Need soil contact for moisture
Formosan Termites
An aggressive subterranean species people call “super termites” because the colonies grow so large and eat wood so fast.
- Huge colonies
- Can build aerial nests
- The most destructive species
- Eat through wood fast
Drywood Termites
These termites do not need soil at all. They can move in on any floor or through your attic rather than through foundation cracks.
- No soil contact needed
- Enter through attics and upper floors
- Leave small pellet droppings
- Tough to spot early
Termite Damage
Why Termites Cause So Much Damage to Homes
They eat the cellulose in wood and other plant fibers like paper and cotton. As they search for food, they also chew through plastics, rubber, and even thin metal.
How They Get In
They fit through cracks as narrow as 1/32 of an inch and enter through gaps in the foundation.
Materials They Damage
They feed on wood, paper, cotton fabrics, plastics, rubber, and even thin metal.
Repair Costs
They cause $1 to $7 billion in US damage a year, and most insurance policies skip it.
Wood Eaten Each Day
A colony eats about a pound of wood a day and keeps at it without stopping.
