Understanding Termites and Their Risk to Your Home
What Are Termites?
Termites are small, social insects that feed primarily on wood. Within a colony, termites are divided into workers, soldiers, and reproductives—all working together 24/7 to eat through wood and cellulose-based materials. While this teamwork may be impressive, it’s nothing short of a nightmare for homeowners.
The Damage They Cause
Termites are often referred to as “silent destroyers” because they can chew through wood, flooring, and even wallpaper undetected. A small infestation can quickly grow into an expensive problem. According to recent studies, the average cost of termite damage repair is around $3,000 per household, an expense that is usually not covered by homeowner insurance policies.
Signs You Might Have Termites
Keep an eye out for these common signs of a termite infestation:
- Mud tubes on walls or foundations.
- Discarded wings near windows or doors.
- Hollow-sounding wood when tapped.
- Peeling paint or bubbling surfaces resembling water damage.
- Termite droppings that resemble sawdust.
If you notice any of these warning signs, it’s critical to act fast. That’s where iPest Solutions comes in.

How to Stay Termite-Free Year-Round
Protecting your home from termites isn’t a one-time task—it’s an ongoing commitment. Here are some practical tips to reduce the risk of termite infestations in your home:
1. Reduce Moisture Around Your Home
Termites thrive in moist environments. Fix any leaks in your pipes or roofs, and ensure proper drainage around your home’s foundation. Consider installing dehumidifiers in crawl spaces or basements.
2. Keep Wood Away from Your Foundation
Store firewood, mulch, and other wood products at least 20 feet away from your home. These can act as a magnet for termites.
3. Seal Cracks and Crevices
Inspect your home’s foundation regularly and seal gaps or cracks that could serve as entry points for termites.
4. Schedule Regular Inspections
Even with preventive measures, having a professional inspect your property annually is crucial. iPest Solutions conducts thorough inspections that identify potential risks before they become problems.
