Termites

Florida is known for its beautiful beaches, blues skies, and gorgeous weather. But did you know Florida’s fabulous climate is also ideal for termites? Yup, that’s right! The warm, balmy weather is not only perfect for beachgoers but for termites as well! But don’t worry— Good News Pest Solutions is here to help you eliminate and prevent these destructive critters from your home.

Florida Has Two Main Types of Termites

Florida’s two types of termites are known as: Subterranean and Drywood.

Subterranean termites live under the soil and are quite industrious creatures. They dig through the soil looking for food and can enter buildings through very small cracks in the slab and foundation of your home. Once they locate food, a tree stump or your home, they make a feeding trail back to their home or colony. Subterranean termites cause over 80% of the $5 Billion in annual termite damage, more than floods and fires combined.

Drywood are swarming termites that live and feed in dry wood and do not come into contact with soil. They can swarm over a building and enter it through unscreened soffit vents or gable and ridge vents. They can also enter through small cracks and crevices around the exterior of the building. Once they establish a colony in one part of a building, they can then swarm into other parts of the building.

For drywood termites, if there has been an interior swarm, or if they are confirmed in multiple locations, GNPS recommends tent fumigation to completely ensure eradication. Since there is absolutely no residual after treatment, this is the most “Green” and comprehensive cure.

We have also enjoyed great success at controlling localized, accessible drywood termite infestations with our exclusive Termi-Shield treatment process.

The bottom line with either kind of termite is they are relentless and need to be stopped! And that’s what we do best at Good News! We provide you with superior pest control methods while being mindful of your health and the environment. We are striving to be the best pest control leader in Florida.
