For homeowners throughout CT, spring signals the presence of termites when their winged termite swarmers show up on window panes, attracted by the sunlight. What most do not know is that their home has likely been infested with termites for several years until the colony reaches a point of sending the swarmers out to establish new colonies.
Annually termites do more damage to homes throughout the CT than the combined effects of storms, fires, and earthquakes. Termite damage is frequently not covered by homeowner’s insurance. It is estimated they cause $5 billion in damage every year.
Termites aren’t the only insect that can inflict property damage, a colony of Carpenter ants, often several thousands in numbers, can enter a home overnight and begin to burrow into its wood.
