Did you know that termite damage costs Americans up to 2 billion dollars a year?
What are termites? Subterranean termites are the major wood destroying structural pests in the southern United States. Termites are “social insects” they live in a nest or colony which is typically found underground. Each colony contains a King, Queen, soldiers, and workers. The queen is able to lay thousands of eggs each year. As the colony grows the workers expand the nest and their feeding grounds.
Florida is considered a very high risk of termite infestation. Many people believe only wood homes are affected. This is simply not true! Concrete block homes can also be infested by termites. If you are planning on relocating to Orlando it is important to be aware of potential termite damage. If you are selling a home in Orlando you need to be informed and up to date about the potential pests that can bring your property value down. Having a pest inspection (or termite inspection) done costs very little and can save you thousands of dollars. This will be money well spent. Don’t let nasty pests eat away at your dream home.
