TERMITE TREATMENT IN BROWNSVILLE, TX

SIGNS OF TERMITES
Termites and other timber pests can cause significant structural and financial damage to your home. Early detection and preventative termite inspections can help reduce the cost of repairs. Termites (also known as white ants) feed on dead plant material, including wood. A colony can consist of hundreds of termites and includes a queen, workers and (often) soldiers, each with their own role. In some species, the mature queen can produce up to 30,000 eggs a day. There are many different kinds of termites and treatment depends on the species and level of infestation.
There are many factors that can affect the cause of a termite infestation. High temperatures, humidity levels (specially in our region) and wind just to name a few.
