Termites

• More than 365,000 homes will need the fire department this year. But over 2 million homes will require termite treatment.
  
• A termite colony is large, composed of the queen, king, winged reproductive swarmers, soldiers and workers.
  
• They feed on wood and may also cause alot of damage to the walls and framework of your home.

Carpenter Ants

• Carpenter ants attack wherever excessive moisture accumulates in parts of dwellings, other buildings, power poles, and fence posts.
  
• Especially vulnerable are porches, roofing and areas near kitchens and bathrooms where water from
  poles and building foundation timbers in contact with the ground absorb large amounts of moisture from the soil and are thus susceptible to ant colonization.

Powder Post Beetles

• Power post beetles usually infest only hardwoods and are often found in manufactured products in relatively new homes.
  
• They can be introduced as eggs or larvae in firewood, improperly dried wood, or wood that has been stored.
  
• Hardwood flooring, furniture, door and window frames and decorative trim are particularly susceptible to attack.
