Termite Control and Inspection in Texas
When termites are most active
Termite swarmers are most visible during warm, humid windows, but colonies can work quietly behind walls and around foundations long before anyone sees wings.
Moisture, wood-to-soil contact, expansion joints, crawl spaces, fence lines, and landscaping against the house can raise termite risk.
Signs of termites pressure
Look for discarded wings, mud tubes, soft wood, bubbling paint, pinholes, or unexplained damage around trim, windows, doors, and garages.
Why termites matter
Termites can damage structural wood before the problem is obvious. Waiting for visible damage can make the repair side more expensive and stressful.
How Root approaches termites
Root starts with inspection, identifies conditions that are helping the colony, and recommends a treatment path based on the structure and the type of pressure found.
