Drywood termites are one of the most problematic threats to Florida homeowners. Unlike subterranean termites, they do not require moisture from the ground; they thrive in the dry structural wood of your home. They can live deep inside attic rafters, window frames, custom door frames, and antique hardwood floors for years before being discovered.

At Pest 911, we have the training to find them and the power to stop them. We don’t just treat the surface; we eliminate the threat.

Is Your Home at Risk? The 3 Signs You Can’t Ignore:

1. Drywood Termite Pellets (Frass): Small, sand-like mounds that look like coffee grounds. Under magnification, these pellets are uniquely six-sided (hexagonal).

2. Discarded “Swarmer” Wings: Piles of translucent, multi-veined wings on windowsills or caught in spider webs.

3. Hollow-Sounding Wood & Blistering Paint: Wood that sounds hollow when tapped or paint that appears to be bubbling indicates galleries running just beneath the surface.

Proactive Protection: In Florida, it’s not a matter of if you will face termites, but when. The best defense is a proactive prevention program. Maintaining a regular inspection schedule ensures activity is caught early, preserving your home’s equity.
