Termite FAQs
How do I know if I have termites?
Look for mud tubes, discarded wings, or damaged wood that sounds hollow when tapped. A professional inspection confirms the presence and extent of activity.
Are termites active year-round in Springfield?
Yes. Although swarming occurs mainly in spring, subterranean termites feed continuously throughout the year.
What’s the difference between termites and carpenter ants?
Termites eat wood, while carpenter ants tunnel through it. Termites have straight antennae and equal-length wings; ants have bent antennae and unequal wings.
Does homeowner’s insurance cover termite damage?
Typically, no. That’s why prevention and regular inspections are critical to protecting your home’s structure.
How can I prevent termites?
Keep firewood and mulch away from your foundation, fix leaks, and schedule annual inspections with Holper’s.
