Ants or Termites?
If you see winged, ant-like insects flying around your property, you need to know whether they are ants or subterranean termites.
If they are swarming termites, an established colony of these house damaging insects are looking for new nesting areas… and your home may be in danger.
If you suspect that these wood destroying insects are in your home, call us immediately.
Our trained staff will confirm identifications and recommend a treatment program (if necessary) to protect your home.
