How to Determine if You Have Termites
Since termites are so small and living inside of the wood in homes, it can be difficult to spot a termite infestation before it is too late. Termites can quickly cause thousands of dollars of structural damage to your home as they munch and eat their way through the wood in your home. They can also eat through electrical wires which can ending up causing a fire. Although there are signals that you may have an infestation, they can be difficult to spot. Some things to watch out for:
- Mud Tubes—These are small, thin tubes that will be near the access points to your home. When you break them open, termites will likely spill out.
- Wood Damage—Look for damage below or behind surfaces that consists of long grooves.
- Discarded Wings—Once termites move to a new place to colonize they will shed their wings. This usually happens in the spring.
Waiting until you see these signs to address possible termites may mean that the damage is already done. You can schedule a free termite inspection at any time. EcoTek will check for any signs of termites and provide you with a free estimate and plan of attack and repair to help mitigate the damage caused by the termites. We will offer a quote on reconstruction repairs from our specialized division that focus on repairs from a termite infestation. We offer years of experience and competitive rates.

Highly Potent Termite Treatments
Our termite treatments consist of using a liquid treatment called Temidor SC. This is a high quality termiticide and is the best product in the market for five consecutive years. We will apply the Termidor SC to the top of your foundation to stop the termites before they damage your home. The termites will carry the treatment back to their colony, which will kill the queen and the entire colony.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there steps I can take to prevent termites?
Termites are attracted to dead wood, so it is important to clear out fallen trees. Never stack firewood directly against your home. Be sure that any structures build in your backyard are made with treated wood, especially your deck. You can repair leaky pipes and check your roof for loose shingles to prevent termites.
What are the benefits of the chemical free monitoring system?
This system will not harm any insects or wildlife around your home. It also makes it easy for our technicians to check termite activity on your property. They will check the stations quarterly and can begin treatments if termites are found, which will help protect your property.
How much time do I need to set aside for an inspection?
The inspections can take between thirty minutes to an hour. The inspector will examine all areas of your home that may show termite damage including your attic, crawlspace or basement. The larger your home the longer the inspection will take.
Do I need to call right away if I have termites?
The longer you wait to call about termites, the more damage the termites can do to your property. The more damage that is done, the more the repairs will cost you. It is important to call as soon as you think there may be a problem.
Can I sell my home If I have termites?
Before you sell your home, you should treat for termites and repair the damage that has been caused. You will need to disclose that you had termites, so it is important to keep a copy of the termite treatment, repairs and future inspections that are done.
