In their natural state, termites eat fallen logs and stumps off the forest floor. A colony may include up to several million individual termites. Living as deep as 20 feet underground, they attack a home from below. They find human dwellings offer the ideal combination of warmth, moisture, and food. Infestations cost Texans millions of dollars annually.

Yes! All termites need is moisture and an entry point to your home -- through a loose mortar joint, a tiny space around a drainpipe, or a settlement crack. When the colony swarms, the winged termites may be in the air for just a few minutes, and you may not see them. They eat wood from the inside out, making their activity detectable only by a professional. 

The experience of homeowners nationwide shows that no home, new or old, is safe from termites. By building mud tubes, termites can cross concrete, brick, cinder block, metal termite shields, pretreated wood, and non-repellent chemical barriers. Only trained professionals understand the intricacies of how a colony behaves so they can effectively prevent entry.

The longer you delay treatment, the more damage termites can do. Repairs will become extensive and more expensive. Generally speaking, the sooner you call, the better. Using advanced termiticides, we can effectively protect your investment for years. Arrow Pest & Termite offers liquid applications using the world's best termiticide, Termidor HE.
