🚨 Termite Trouble Alert! 🐜

Did you know termites cause billions of dollars in damage each year—and most of it isn't covered by homeowners insurance?

These tiny pests might be small, but they can silently destroy the structure of your home from the inside out. By the time you see the signs, the damage is often already extensive.

🔍 Look out for:
• Hollow-sounding wood
• Discarded wings
• Mud tubes along your walls or foundation
• Tight-fitting doors or windows

Don't wait until it's too late—early detection and treatment are key to protecting your home!

👉 If you haven’t had a termite inspection recently, now's the time. Your peace of mind (and your house!) are worth it. Give us a call @ 863-967-6146

Drywood Termites are a type of termite that infest dry wood, including structural timbers, furniture, and hardwood flooring. Unlike subterranean termites, they do not require contact with soil and can live entirely within the wood they consume.

🔍 Identification
Size: About 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) long
Color: Pale brown to dark brown
Wings: Winged reproductives (alates) have two pairs of equal-length wings
Frass (droppings): Small, dry, pellet-like droppings pushed out of the colony — often the first visible sign
🏚️ Damage Caused by Drywood Termites
Structural Damage:
Hollowing out wood beams, joists, walls, and floors
Weakening the integrity of wooden structures over time
Furniture Damage:
Infest antique or hardwood furniture
Leave behind blistering or cracked paint from internal damage
Harder to Detect:
No mud tubes (unlike subterranean termites)
Damage is often hidden inside the wood until it becomes extensive
🧪 Signs of Infestation
Frass piles (tiny, ridged pellets)
Clicking sounds from within walls
Blisters or sagging in wood surfaces
Flying termites or shed wings near windows
🛠️ Treatment & Prevention
Local treatment: Heat, microwave, or spot chemical injections for small infestations
Whole-structure treatment: Fumigation (tenting) is often required for larger infestations
Prevention:
Seal cracks and crevices in buildings
Regular inspections (especially in dry, coastal areas)
Store wood properly and away from your home

Yes, drywood termites can reinfest after a tent fumigation, although fumigation is highly effective at killing existing colonies throughout a structure.

Here’s why reinfestation can occur:
Fumigation doesn’t prevent future infestations: It kills all termites present during the treatment, but it leaves no residual protection.
New colonies can enter from outside: Drywood termites can swarm and re-enter through cracks, vents, or exposed wood.
Missed or untreated areas: If parts of the structure were not fully penetrated by the fumigant, some termites might survive.
Wood-to-wood contact or infested items: Furniture, firewood, or other wooden items brought into the home can harbor new colonies.
Prevention tips:
Seal cracks and gaps in the structure.
Use termite-resistant or treated wood.
Regularly inspect and maintain the property.
Consider spot treatments or borate wood treatments for long-term protection.

🛑 Worried About Drywood Termites? 🐜
Let’s talk warranty bonds—your home’s secret weapon! 🏡💪

Drywood termites can silently wreak havoc on your home’s structure. That’s why many pest control companies offer warranty bonds—a powerful promise that if these sneaky pests return, you’re covered!

✅ What’s a Warranty Bond?
It’s like termite insurance. After treatment, a warranty bond gives you peace of mind knowing that future infestations will be treated at no extra cost (within the bond period). Some even cover repairs!

🔍 Pro Tips:

Always ask what the warranty covers—treatments, damage repair, inspections?
Check how long the bond lasts and if it’s renewable.
See if the bond is transferable to new homeowners—great for resale value!

🛠️ A strong warranty bond = long-term protection & fewer termite headaches.

🛑 Protect Your Home From Termites Before Damage Starts 🐜

At ICI Termite & Pest Control, we use the Trelona® ATBS Annual Bait Station system to help protect homes from destructive termites year-round.

Here’s how it works👇

✔️ Bait stations are strategically installed around your home
✔️ Termites find the bait and carry it back to the colony
✔️ The active ingredient spreads through the colony, eliminating termites at the source
✔️ Ongoing monitoring helps keep your home protected long-term

Unlike treatments that only target visible activity, Trelona works to eliminate the entire colony before serious damage can happen.

Florida termites never take a break — and neither should your protection.
