Everything you need to know about Aptive Pest Control Services.
How do I know if I have termites?
Common signs of termites include hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings near windows or doors, and mud tubes along walls, foundations, or crawl spaces. You may also notice sagging or damaged wood. If you see any of these signs, it’s best to have a professional pest control inspection to confirm whether termites are present.
How do you identify termites?
Termites are often mistaken for ants, but they have a few distinct characteristics. Termites have straight antennae, equal-length wings, and a thick, uniform waist. Swarming termites or piles of discarded wings near window sills can also indicate activity. A professional inspection can confirm whether termites are present and determine the extent of any infestation.
Do termites go away on their own?
No. Once a termite colony becomes established, it typically will not go away without treatment. Left untreated, termites can continue feeding on wood and other materials, causing increasing damage over time. Professional treatment is the most effective way to eliminate an infestation. Call Aptive to schedule your inspection: 216-450-6405.
How do I get rid of termites?
Effective termite control requires professional treatment. A licensed pest control expert will inspect your home, identify the extent of the infestation, and recommend the best treatment approach. This may include liquid treatments, bait systems, or a combination of methods designed to eliminate the colony and help prevent future activity.
How can you prevent termites?
Prevention is one of the most effective defenses against termites. Steps like pretreating soil before construction and controlling moisture around the home can help reduce the risk of infestation. During your free inspection, Aptive will identify areas around your home that may increase termite risk. To provide even greater protection, Aptive also partners with the most advanced termite monitoring system available, helping ensure your home is continuously monitored and protected.
Is termite damage covered by homeowners insurance?
Most homeowners’ insurance policies do not cover termite damage, making proactive prevention and monitoring especially important for protecting your home.
