Detecting Termite Presence

Another sign to listen out for is hollow-sounding timber. Termites eat wood from the inside out and leave wood that has been visibly tunnelled out. Knocking on the wood will sound dull, hollow and papery. If you put your ear to the wall, you’ll usually be able to hear the sound of termites munching away at the timber.

Similar to funnel ants and other pests, humid conditions and warm climates create an ideal living environment for termites. Hard-to-open windows and warped doors can be another sign that your home has a termite infestation.

As a homeowner, you may already know the signs to look out if your property has termites. If you’re purchasing a new house, we’ll be happy to carry out a termite inspection to rule out the possibility of termites and potentially save you hundreds in pest control.
