Termite Protection
Your biggest investment may be at risk.
Termites. They will eat any kind of wood material, from a home's foundation to its furniture. Every year, they attack thousands of homes in Hawaii and cause millions of dollars of damage. Termite damage in Hawaii is more common than damage caused by storms, fires or earthquakes and hurricanes, yet it is rarely covered by homeowners insurance. The scariest part: Termites are often not discovered until it's too late.
FACT: The termites on Earth outweigh the humans on Earth.
Because termites eat wood from the inside out, they are extremely difficult to detect. However, there are a couple of signs to watch for that can indicate the presence of termites:
- Termite swarmers inside your home
- Mud tubes/tunnels along your foundation or walls
- Termite droppings (frass) piling up in the same area
- Small holes in the wood, or drywall, or buckling paint
In Hawaii, there are two types of termites that are responsible for the vast majority of termite problems in homes and buildings:
- Formosan Termite, also known as the "ground" termite
- Drywood Termite
It is important to consider that no single treatment approach is right for every home.
