- Termite infestations cause homeowners $5 billion in property damage every year
- They feed on dead plants and trees and dead parts of living trees in wood and soil and wreak havoc on property such as house foundations, furniture, shelves, books, carpets and insulation
- They can hide and thrive in your basement or yard without you seeing any immediate signs of damage
- As long as they have food, moisture, shelter and optimal temperature, they'll be content to eat you out of house and home
- Termite can infest structures and cause significant structural damage and can chew through support beams, floors and walls, causing expensive repairs
- The hard, saw-toothed jaws of termites work like shears and are able to bite off extremely small fragments of wood, one piece at a time
