Drywood termites can be a frustrating problem to have in your home! Oftentimes, we get calls and questions about how to determine whether or not termites are present in someone’s home.

If you’re not sure if you have drywood termites in your home, here are some things you can check for:

• A Drywood Termite Swarmer has a black body with a reddish head and wings
• Drywood Termites Swarmers will be visible in spider webs around windows. You can also look for discarded wings, droppings and swarms
• Look for piles of grain-like material that will continue to reappear
• Holes will typically show up anywhere on walls that are accessible to the exterior of the building

The best way to determine whether or not termites are present in your home is to call an expert. A professional termite and pest control company, like Central Coast Termite & Pest, can help determine whether or not termites are infesting your home, and can help to eliminate them if they are!
