TERMITE INSPECTION

INSPECTING HOMES FOR TERMITES

You might not think a termite report is necessary for your home, but in reality, a termite inspection is one of the best investments you can make. If you are buying a home, ordering a full inspection is the one foolproof way to make sure you are fully aware of any termites that may be present. You can get your pest inspection from 49er Termite & Pest Control for the most detailed Wood Destroying Pest and Organism report available. Any real estate agent should encourage you to have both the interior and exterior of a home examined before closing so that you do not get stuck with a massive bill for extermination and repairs.

CALL US IF YOU SUSPECT AN INFESTATION

A termite report is an essential document for any real estate transaction, but you might be wondering what exactly it is. There are several components of the inspection, including:

Inspection in and around the home
Identification of any colonies and damage present
Dryrot/fungus
Review of all necessary repairs
Recommendations for treatment
Identification of any wood destroying organisms

Termites are one of the most pernicious pests because they are often unseen yet can be incredibly destructive. If you suspect that your home may have this problem or are preparing to buy a home, getting an inspection can provide you with the information you need. 49er Termite & Pest Control offers comprehensive reports and inspections to commercial and residential clients in areas such as Sacramento, El Dorado, and Amador Counties. We treat termites as well as most other pests you may be dealing with. For more information, reach out to us at (530) 677-7923.

SUBTERRANEAN & DRYWOOD

SUBTERRANEAN TERMITES

Termites of any kind are a pain to deal with, but subterranean and dry wood termites are particularly problematic when it comes to inflicting damage and wreaking havoc on your home. 49er Termite & Pest Control specializes in identifying both, serving clients throughout the greater Shingle Springs area. Subterranean termites are different from other types in that they nest underground. This means that an infestation could come from several different points. Enlisting help from a professional is essential if you want to eradicate these pests from your property for good.

IDENTIFY THE DRYWOOD SPECIES

Unlike the subterranean species, dry wood termites make their home in the wood structures of your house. This is one of the several differences in their nesting and feeding habits. These termites also tend to be less picky in their destruction. While subterranean varieties will only eat the softest wood, dry wood attackers will feed on just about any part of the wood structures. The latter also has more distinctive excrement that you may notice: their hexagonal pellets, called: "frass," often resemble salt and pepper or fine sand granules.
