You've spent years
building the equity in your home, creating a refuge for your
family. Now TERMITES threaten it's value and you're forced to
act.
Left alone, the constant chewing of termites will systematically
destroy a building. In fact they cause millions of dollars in damage to
homes every year.
But what steps should be taken to STOP them?
The first step in implementing a termite control plan is to sit down
with your licensed inspector and discuss the different options, and
methods available to you. Ask questions and be informed.
Once you have customized a treatment method to suit your property's
needs it is important to take action. Don't put off what is
unavoidable.
Termite colonies will grow in numbers and continue to spread out forming
satellite colonies. Structural damage caused by termites can become more
costly than the actual treatment if left untreated.
Make sure your
termite company offers a written guarantee and an annual maintenance
service.
Any further questions of concern can be directed to the
"Structural Pest Control Board" which governs the Pest Control Industry.
They can confirm a company's licensing status and complaint history.
