5 Signs You Have a Termite Infestation and What to Do

Termites cause billions of rupees in property damage annually in India. The tricky part — they are often active for months or years before you notice the damage. Here are 5 early warning signs to watch for:

1. Mud Tubes — Pencil-width tubes of mud along walls, foundations, or wood. These are termite highways.
2. Hollow Wood Sounds — Tap on wooden surfaces. A hollow sound means termites have eaten the wood from inside.
3. Discarded Wings — Piles of wings near window sills indicate a termite swarm has recently set up a new colony.
4. Tight-fitting Doors and Windows — Termite damage causes wood to warp, making doors and windows hard to open.
5. Frass (Termite Droppings) — Small, dark pellets that look like sawdust near wood surfaces.
