Subterranean Termites – The Invisible Tennessee Enemy
- Termites exist almost anywhere there is soil.
- Termites cause more damage every year than fires, earthquakes and storms combined.
- Homeowner's Insurance doesn't cover termite damage.
- On average there are 3-5 termite colonies per acre of land
- Termites enter through foundation cracks, plumbing entry points (as small as 1/64 of an inch), ground to wood contact and mud tubes up foundation walls.
- New homes are just as vulnerable as older homes.
- Termites attack wood in homes made of brick, stucco, and block.
- Most Guild termite companies will retreat if termites return, but will not pay for repairs.
