Signs of Termites
Mud Tunnels
See a mystery line of dirt that is climbing a wall or leading to a wooden surface? It could be termites! One of the first signs of a termite infestation is typically their mud tunnels or "shelter tubes". They use them to stay protected as they ascend from underground to travel to their food source, which could be parts of your home!
Floors Creaking / Settling
A potential and often overlooked sign of termites is new or worsening creaking of floors or settling of walls. Termites consume the cellulose found in wood, which is what helps give it strength. Without cellulose, wood becomes very brittle and weak which often leads to floors and walls settling. Given enough time this damage can lead to catastrophic structural damage!
Bubbling / Lines On Walls
A third, and equally important sign of termites could be small bubbling and streaking on walls. When touched these lines or bubbling reveal a soft spot underneath which is often a tunnel left from termites feeding on the paper backing of sheetrock.
