Drywood Termites

If you think like most homeowners, you assume termites come from the ground and since you had that liquid stuff or the baiting program, you’re covered right? Think again.

Unlike subterranean termites, Drywood Termites typically enter your home through its attic. Drywood “swamers” can come fro the tress on your property or be carried several hundred feet on a summer breeze from a nearby wooded area. Once they find an opening, Drywood Termites then infest your attic through roof vents, eaves, or loose shingles/ tiles. Cracks and crevices around your windows and doors also make your home susceptible to attack. Once infested, the only cure is a costly fumigation. However, after the fumigation Drywood prevention can be an added layer of protection to keep drywood termites from returning.

Don’t leave your home unprotected! Lewis-Cobb will treat your attic and all exposed cracks and crevices to protect your home from Drywood Termites.
