Warning Signs of a Termite Infestation
Knowing what to look for can make a real difference in how quickly a colony gets addressed. Termite swarmers are winged reproductives leaving a mature colony to start new ones, and finding them near windows, doors, or light fixtures suggests an active colony may be nearby. Swarmers are often mistaken for flying ants, so correct identification matters before any treatment begins.
Beyond swarmers, these are the signs we ask Katy homeowners to watch for:
- Discarded wings on windowsills or floors after a swarm event
- Mud tubes running from soil up to a foundation or along interior walls, built by subterranean termites to travel without exposure
- Hollow-sounding wood when you tap a beam, baseboard, or door frame
- Bubbling or uneven paint on walls or trim, caused by moisture termites introduce as they feed
Native subterranean termites in the Houston region typically swarm during the day in spring. Formosan subterranean termites swarm at night in late spring, often around mid-May. If you’ve seen either type of activity, don’t wait to get it checked out.
Our Termite Inspection & Treatment Process in Katy
Every termite engagement starts with a meticulous inspection. A certified technician examines your property from foundation to attic, looking for signs of active termite activity, existing structural damage, and conditions that make infestation more likely. Nothing gets skipped, because termites don’t always show up where you expect them.
Once the inspection is complete, we develop a customized treatment plan based on exactly what was found at your property. Our treatment is built on the Sentricon system, a scientifically proven termite bait system that targets the colony rather than just the termites that happen to be visible. The bait is carried back to the colony, working to target it at the source.
