How To Tell If You Have Termites On Your Gilbert Property

Termites can be hard to spot. They’re called “silent destroyers” for a reason. Termites are most likely to start damaging your home in areas you don’t often look at or cannot see.

Early Detection Is Very Important

Unfortunately, early detection and treatment are important so termites don’t spread and cause major damage. Watch out for the following signs of a termite infestation:

  • Windows and doors that are hard to open or close or feel “stuck”
  • Paint that appears bubbled
  • Peeling or discolored wallpaper
  • Wood that sounds hollow when tapped
  • Mud tubes on the exterior of your home
  • The presence of termite swarmers or discarded wings, usually near windowsills or doorways
  • Termite droppings, which look like sawdust piles and are usually found near small holes in walls
