Termite Control in Huntington Beach, CA
Offering Free Termite Inspections
If your home has termites, it is important not to delay the treatment process, as this can allow termites to spread, making them more difficult to treat and potentially causing extensive, costly damage in your home. Our goal here at Kilter Termite and Pest Control is to make it as easy as possible for homeowners to get an accurate and honest assessment of their infestations, which is why we offer completely complimentary, no-obligation inspections.
How to Tell if You Might Have Termites
- Mud Tubes: Subterranean termites build mud tubes to travel from their nests to a food source. These tubes can be found on the exterior foundation walls, wooden structures, or other surfaces.
- Wood Damage: Termites feed on wood from the inside out, so the wood may appear intact from the outside while being hollowed out on the inside. Look for sagging or damaged wood, especially in areas that are prone to moisture.
- Discarded Wings: After swarming, termites shed their wings. If you find discarded wings around your windowsills, doors, or other entry points, it could indicate a termite infestation.
- Tight-Fitting Doors or Windows: Swollen or hard-to-open doors and windows may be a sign of termite damage. Termites produce moisture as they feed, which can cause wood to warp.
- Bubbling or Peeling Paint: Termites can cause paint to bubble or peel as they feed and create tunnels beneath the surface.
- Hollow-Sounding Wood: Tap or knock on wooden surfaces. If the wood sounds hollow, it could be an indication of termite damage in your Huntington Beach home.
- Frass (Termite Droppings): Drywood termites push fecal pellets out of their galleries. These tiny, wood-colored pellets may accumulate in small piles and resemble sawdust.
- Noises: Some people report hearing a clicking sound coming from walls. Soldier termites may bang their heads against the wood or shake when disturbed, creating audible noises.
- Visible Termites: In some cases, you may actually see termites. Winged termites, also known as swarmers, are often the most visible sign.
- Sagging or Buckling Floors: Subterranean termites can damage the structural integrity of wooden flooring, causing it to sag or buckle.
