The Best Termite Protection For Salt Lake City Properties

In Salt Lake City, the most destructive termites are subterranean termites. These termites live in the ground, when they're not going in and out of man-made structures. If termites get into the structures on your Salt Lake City property, they can do a lot of damage, over time. This can lead to costly repairs in the season of your life when you're looking to retire and relax. If you'd like to protect your equity and your retirement nest egg from the threat of termite damage, we have a few suggestions.

Good Termite Protection

One of the key reasons subterranean termites are so destructive is linked to their incredible ability to stay hidden. You can stand in your yard with millions of termite below your feet and not know it. You can also have those million termites feeding on your Salt Lake City home and not know. Subterranean termites stay in their tunnels and feed on structures, nibble by nibble, for years. The secret to arresting this damage is to detect termite activity early and deal with termites quickly. This is the least amount of protection you should have for your property.

Inspection Tips

Inspect your foundation for shelter tubes. These are above-ground tunnels made by worker termites. Be thorough with your inspection and check portions of your foundation that are difficult to inspect, such as underneath your deck, patio or porch.
Inspect interior surfaces for shelter tubes.
Inspect spider webs on your property for the presence of white wings or termite swarmers.
Inspect the wood of your home for changes. Pay particular attention to wood that is in damp, dark locations around your home.
Inspect any dead branches in your yard. If you see tiny bugs that look like maggots with legs, you're probably looking at termite workers.

Better Termite Protection

Subterranean termites can be difficult to detect, even if you know where to look and what to look for. If you want to step up to a higher level of protection, the solution is to invest in Termi-Shield termite monitoring. A product like Termi-Shield works to monitor termite activity. It does this by attracting termites to bait stations that can be easily checked. There is no need to crawl around your property and get dirty. Worker termites are guaranteed to find the bait in your Termi-Shield monitoring stations because termites have a few traits that work against them.

When worker termites find a food source, they recruit termites to feed on the source. That means the bait in your Termi-Shield monitoring stations will start to noticeably deteriorate.
Every worker in a colony will not feed on one source of food. When termites come into your yard to feed on a stump, log, dead branches, rotting wood on your back deck, or some other source, a large number of them will continue to look for food. This guarantees that they will find the bait stations.
Worker termites are simple organisms that don't require sleep. They work tirelessly day and night to do their job. When you have termite activity in your yard, you're likely to have constant termite activity. This increases the speed that bait is taken, one nibble at a time.

Best Termite Protection

While it is certainly a benefit to have ongoing inspections or termite monitoring to catch termites early, it is possible to go one step further. A Termidor® application to the perimeter of your home can work to eliminate termite colonies even as termites come to feed on your home. Termidor® products have a transfer effect. When termites pass through Termidor® liquid termiticides in the soil, they don't realize it. Termidor® is undetectable to termites. Once exposed, the workers share the active ingredient with the other termites in their colony. This arrests development of termites in the colony and kills the colony. When there is no more colony, there is no more threat to your property. Termidor® products can also be used to spot treat areas of your home. If you've invested in an annual inspection or Termi-Shield monitoring, Termidor® is the treatment method used by most professionals when termite activity is found.
