A colony of termites can comfortably eat through the wood of your home, resulting in structural damage as well as costly, complicated repairs. Please read on for more information about services for termite control in Baltimore and the surrounding areas.
Termite Structural Damages
Termites can cause enough structural damage making the building unsafe for habitation. The damage affects a number of structural components, including:
- floors
- support beams
- posts
- wall studs
- floor joists
- ceiling joists
- roof supports
- drywall or sheetrock
- attics
- foundations
Homes built mainly with wood are not the only buildings threatened by termite infestations. Homes constructed with other materials may also host large termite colonies since these pests can traverse through plaster, metal siding and more. Termites then feed on window sills, door frames, cabinets, and wooden furniture within these homes.
The effects of a termite infestation may take years to manifest and can be difficult for the everyday person to see. That is why it is recommended to have regular termite inspection with licensed termite control in Baltimore. The professional will point out the termite damage and make suggestions as to how you can take steps to correct the problem.
