Termites cause billions of dollars in structural damage every year, and Florida homes are especially vulnerable. Because termite damage often occurs behind walls, early detection is critical.
Types of Termites in Florida
Subterranean Termites
Live in soil and build mud tubes to reach wood structures.
Drywood Termites
Live directly inside wood and do not require soil contact.
Early Warning Signs of Termite Activity
- Mud tubes along foundations
- Hollow-sounding wood
- Bubbling paint
- Pellet-like droppings (frass)
- Swarming termites near windows
Ignoring these signs can result in significant structural damage.
