Termite FAQ
Are Termites Dangerous?
While termites are notorious for wreaking havoc on homes and other structures, the majority of termites pose little direct danger to humans. Although some termites may bite or sting if agitated, this is rare. However, their destruction of plant matter and wood that make up people's homes and businesses can have costly consequences. So, while the infestation itself may not be as hazardous to your health as another pest may be, it can be dangerous to the structural integrity of your property if left untreated.
What Do Termites Eat?
Termites pose a threat to the structure of your home, as their main diet is wood and other cellulose based materials, including plants, paper products, cotton, some fabrics, and cardboard, as well as dead plant material. There are a few different types of termites, though the most common termites in Rhode Island and Massachusetts make their nests in the soil around your home.
Common Types of Termites in Rhode Island?
Subterranean termites are common throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts. These termites build their colonies in the soil near your home but feed on nearby wood and plant materials on the ground. Other kinds of termites, like dampwood or drywood termites, nest in wood as well as feast on it.
Our team will help you identify exactly what kind of termite you are facing and provide solutions that work for you and your situation. Depending on what kind of termite you are dealing with, our Providence termite removal team will deploy certain techniques to treat your infestation.
