Signs of a Termite Infestation

Termites often work out of sight, so damage can go unnoticed for a long time. Knowing the signs helps you act early.

Common warning signs

• Mud tubes along walls, foundations or ceilings
• Timber that sounds hollow when tapped
• Discarded wings near windows and lights
• Doors or windows that suddenly stick
• Bubbling or uneven paint

What to do if you suspect termites

Avoid breaking mud tubes or spraying household insecticide, as this can disturb the colony and make inspection harder. Contact a professional for an inspection.
