Termites reside in the soil and every year, they cause more damage than fires, storms and earthquakes combined. These insects usually destroy wood in buildings made of brick, block and stucco. Buildings of any age are vulnerable to damage. Termites enter buildings through foundation cracks, plumbing entry points and mud tubes on the walls of foundations among other areas. Property owners can avoid expensive damage by eradicating termites.

In order to protect your property from the damage that termites cause, you should consult with professionals who offer termite treatment services. By opting for professional termite treatment Hollywood Maryland residents can safeguard the structural integrity of their residential or commercial properties. They can also have peace of mind by knowing that if termites infest their properties again, the service providers can retreat their properties.

There are several termite control methods to choose from. Control options for homes where subterranean termites have infested include chemical barriers, termiticides and physical barriers. Control options for homes where drywood termites are present include the use of liquid termiticides, fumigation, cold or heat treatments and removing infested wood.

Another method that is used to eradicate termites is baiting. Professionals commonly use baits that are made from paper, cardboard or other palatable foods that are combined with substances that kill termites. The baits are placed underground in cylindrical plastic containers or inside a property over mud tubes where termite activity is evident. After eating the baits, the number of termites reduces gradually.

Therefore, they do not pose a health hazard to people, the environment and pets if they are applied properly.
