"Technicians installed traps around house but didn't put them all low enough in the ground to prevent damage from lawnmower. A number of the traps have been damaged or destroyed by my lawnmower, but I can't get them to come back and repair or replace them. Seems like once they got their money they didn't really care about maintaining their work."

Termite infestations display clear warning signs. Home inspections reveal mud tubes connecting wood to subterranean nests, visibly damaged or hollow wood, clusters of discarded termite wings, and areas where paint bubbles or buckles. These indicators alert homeowners to early termite activity and potential structural damage, signaling the need for a prompt professional evaluation.
Termites do not commonly bite humans or pets, but it is possible. Even if termites bite you, you aren't likely to notice or be bothered by it because their jaws are so small. If you have bug bites and aren’t sure where they are coming from, you may have another type of insect infestation. Find a local bed bug exterminator as soon as possible if you think you might have bed bugs in your home.
Many homeowners' insurance policies do not cover termite damage. Check with your insurance agent or review your policy to be sure, but it is unlikely that it is covered. However, because termite inspections are often free, you can get an annual inspection and treat problems affordably before they get out of hand.
Termites zero in on cellulose, so anything made of wood—siding, framing, or that backyard deck—can lure them in. Soft or damp lumber is an even bigger magnet, which is why leaks and high humidity spell trouble. Seal and treat exposed wood, fix plumbing leaks quickly, and keep crawl spaces dry to make your home less appealing to a wandering colony.
A termite bond is a service agreement that guarantees coverage against termite treatment costs and lasts for one to three years. These bonds secure zero additional extermination expenses during the covered period and allow for reactivation after expiration with a fee. This agreement protects homeowners from unexpected treatment costs following an infestation.
