Subterranean termites are the most destructive termite species in North America, responsible for billions of dollars in damage annually. These termites live in colonies in the soil and build mud tubes to travel between their nests and food sources (your home’s wooden structures). Our strategy for combating subterranean termites involves a multi-pronged attack:
Drywood termites infest dry, undecayed wood and do not require contact with the soil. They are often found in attics, furniture, and structural timbers. Evidence of drywood termites includes small, pellet-like fecal droppings (frass) and kick-out holes. Our treatment methods for drywood termites depend on the extent of the infestation:
Beyond termites, Arden-Arcade Termite offers holistic pest management solutions for a wide array of common household pests. Our general pest control services are designed to keep your home or business safe and sanitary.
Early detection is crucial for mitigating damage and preventing widespread infestations. Many pests, especially termites, can cause significant harm long before their presence becomes obvious. Knowing the signs to look for can save you thousands in repairs and countless headaches. If you observe any of the following indicators, it’s time to contact Arden-Arcade Termite for a professional assessment.
Mud tubes, often the width of a pencil, are one of the most definitive signs of subterranean termites. These protective tunnels are used by termites to travel from their underground colonies to their food source (your home’s wood) while protecting them from predators and dry environments. Finding mud tubes indicates an active and potentially large subterranean termite colony at work near your property. Left unaddressed, these pests can extensively compromise your home’s structural integrity, leading to costly repairs. Our expert inspection will identify these critical pathways and trace them back to the source, allowing us to deploy targeted and highly effective treatments to eliminate the colony.
During swarming season (often in spring), reproductive termites (alates) emerge from established colonies to find new locations to start their own. After finding a mate, they shed their wings, leaving behind small, translucent wings that resemble fish scales. Discovering these discarded wings, particularly near windowsills, doors, or light sources, is a strong indication that a mature termite colony is present either within your home or very close by. This sign necessitates immediate attention, as it signals the potential for new, damaging colonies to form. We can quickly assess the extent of the swarming activity and implement strategies to prevent further colonization.
Termites consume cellulose, the primary component of wood, from the inside out. This means that outwardly, a piece of wood may appear perfectly fine, while internally, it’s severely damaged and hollowed out. Tapping on wood that sounds hollow or feels soft to the touch can indicate termite damage. You might also notice wood that looks blistered, warped, or stained, resembling water damage. These subtle changes can belie extensive termite activity beneath the surface. Our technicians are trained to identify these nuanced signs, even in less accessible areas, and employ appropriate treatment methods that eradicate the hidden colonies and protect the remaining structure.
For drywood termites, evidence often includes tiny, pinhead-sized holes in wood surfaces, known as kick-out holes. Through these holes, drywood termites expel their distinctive fecal pellets, or ‘frass.’ Drywood termite frass looks like tiny, gritty, hexagonal pellets, often resembling sawdust or coffee grounds, and can be found in small piles directly below the infested wood. Unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites don’t require soil contact, making these small holes and frass piles critical indicators of their presence. Discovering frass in areas like attics, furniture, or structural timbers strongly suggests an active drywood termite infestation, requiring specialized drywood termite protocols for complete eradication.
Pest droppings, varying in size and shape depending on the species, are unmistakable signs of an active infestation. Rodent droppings resemble dark grains of rice (mice) or larger pellets (rats), while cockroach droppings may look like coffee grounds or black pepper. Beyond droppings, certain pests, especially rodents and cockroaches, can emit foul, musky, or ammonia-like odors due to their urine and secretions, particularly in enclosed spaces like cabinets or attics. Recognizing these signs early allows for swift action, preventing further disease transmission and contamination in your living or working environment.
Rodents (mice and rats) have continuously growing incisors, compelling them to gnaw constantly to keep their teeth trimmed. These gnaw marks can be found on a variety of materials, including electrical wires (posing a fire hazard), wooden furniture, baseboards, pipes, and especially on food packaging in pantries. Recognizing these distinctive marks indicates an active rodent problem, which not only causes structural damage but also contaminates food and surfaces, and can transmit diseases. Our team can quickly identify the type of rodent and implement effective trapping, baiting, and exclusion strategies to secure your property.
While many pests are nocturnal, seeing them during the day, especially in large numbers, often indicates a significant infestation. This could include ants marching in large trails across your kitchen counter, cockroaches scurrying when you flip on a light, or spiders frequently appearing in living areas. Conversely, heightened activity specific to nocturnal pests, such as scratching sounds in walls or attics at night (rodents), or the characteristic rustling of bed bugs as you prepare for bed, are clear alarm bells. Any consistent sightings of pests should prompt a professional inspection to determine the scope of the problem and implement a tailored control plan.
Pests, particularly rodents, can create a symphony of unsettling sounds within your home’s hidden spaces. Scratching, gnawing, scampering, or squeaking noises emanating from walls, ceilings, attics, or crawl spaces are strong indicators of an active infestation. These sounds are most commonly associated with mice and rats moving around, chewing on wires or wood, or building nests. Overlooking these auditory cues can allow populations to multiply unchecked, leading to greater damage and health risks. Our thorough inspections include listening for these subtle yet telling signs to pinpoint pest locations and devise effective eradication strategies.
If you or family members are experiencing unexplained bites, itchy welts, or skin rashes, especially upon waking, pests might be the culprits. Common offenders include bed bugs, which leave clusters of itchy, red bites, typically in lines or zigzags, often on exposed skin. Fleas, especially if you have pets, can cause intensely itchy bites, usually around ankles. Even some mites can cause skin irritation. These symptoms are not merely an annoyance; they signal an active infestation that needs addressing immediately to alleviate discomfort and prevent allergic reactions or secondary infections. We can help identify the biting pest and implement targeted treatments to ensure your home is free of these irritants.
Don’t let pests compromise the safety, health, or value of your home or business. Termites, rodents, and other invasive insects can cause extensive damage and pose significant health risks if left unchecked. Procrastination only allows infestations to grow, leading to more costly and complex problems down the line.
