Termites are extremely small insects that have the potential to do large amounts of damage. Termites feast on wood. They live in large colonies that are underneath homes. During the winter time they are in a semi-hibernated state. However, when the ground thaws they become active once again. They will enter into the home through cracks in the foundation, and they will start to eat away at the walls of the home. Obviously, this is of great concern to homeowners. It is estimated that annually termites do more than $5 billion worth of damage to homes. If you have a problem with termites in your home or business, contact a professional New Jersey termite control company right away.
One of the more obvious indications that you have termites in your home is when you see a flying swarm of them in your home. They will swarm together to reproduce. This usually happens when the weather is warmer outside, sometime during the late spring or early summer. Granted, you may not always see the reproductive swarm flying around the house, as this swarm usually gets together only for a short amount of time.
