Termite Control in Ketchikan, Alaska

Termites can build large and complex colonies much like ants. Plants are what termites usually feed on, but they are mostly known for consuming wood.

• Some ways to tell if termites have infested are hollowed wood, discarded wings and mud-packed galleries in the wood.
• Poisoning the soil is another method to keeping termites away from the building’s entry points.
• Termites have a king and queen that mate to create colonies.
• Queen termites lay the eggs while the king stands guard until they hatch.
• Cellulose is the main energy source termites seek their food.
