Is there anything I can do to reduce the risk of getting termite damage?
Posted on May 13, 2025
There are some things you can do to reduce your chances of a termite invasion of your home. They include:
- Maintain landscaped areas a few feet away from the foundation of the structure.
- Keep firewood stacked away from the structure.
- Keep crawl spaces and basements clear of wood
debris and excess moisture.
- Fix faulty drainage and any plumbing or roof
leaks that cause moisture to accumulate.
- Routinely check in and around the structure for
mud tubes, discarded termite wings and general
signs of termite activity.
- If adding a room or deck to the structure, make
sure the wood used has been treated to discourage termites.
