Why Termite Control is So Important

Termites are one of the most destructive pests homeowners face. They feed on wood and can compromise the structural integrity of your home over time.

Common risks include:

  • Hidden structural damage
  • Expensive repairs
  • Undetected infestations for months or years
  • Reduced property value



In New England, termite activity increases in the spring and summer, but infestations can remain active year-round inside structures.

Common Termites in New England

  • Eastern Subterranean Termites – The most common and destructive species in NH, MA, and Southern Maine
  • Live underground and build mud tubes to access homes
  • Thrive in moist environments near foundations



Proper identification is critical for effective treatment.

Signs You May Have Termites


  • Mud tubes along foundation walls
  • Hollow-sounding wood
  • Discarded wings near windows or doors
  • Bubbling or damaged wood surfaces
  • Swarming termites (especially in spring)


If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to act quickly.
