As temperatures begin to warm, termites make their way back to our sunny state. According to the Florida Realtors Association there are some preventative measures that you can take to protect your property:
• Remove wood piles and other cellulose sources from under and next to homes.
• Have an annual inspection by a licensed professional pest control company.
• Direct water sources, such as air conditioner drip lines and roof downspouts, away from the structure foundation.
• When purchasing a home, carefully check its termite protection history.
• Obtain a termite protection contract and renew it annually.
Make sure you read your termite bond contract- not all are created equal.
