    If it's "too late" then they aren't exactly *warning signs*. They're "too late" signs, whatever that means.

    Thanks! We were able to find a lot of damage in a house we just bought. We put up videos of the damage and will be documenting how we fix it. We are just DIY homeowners.

    Summary:
    1. look for termite wings
    2. Southern U.S. is more likely because of humidity. Starts in basement or cellar. Look for mud tubes.
    3. Hardest to spot. Wood damage.

    My landlord continues to say that the type of termites we have don't require a tent.
    The wood frames in the house are rotten. They come out at night between 7pm and 9pm
    After a 14 hour day of work. Wings are ferocious as well as their dead ant and maggot looking bodies. They are everywhere. I'm in South Florida. Landlord has sent someone to spray 3x and NOTHING is working. Please help with any advice

      Depends on where you live .most are subterranean unless you live in a warm coastal area where you could have drywood termites that need tenting

    • @fretbuzzly
      @fretbuzzly Год назад

      Drywood termites don't necessarily require tenting. There are plenty of ways to treat drywood termites without tenting. Also, tenting has no residual effect. It might, I say might, kill what's there, but there are no guarantees and it has zero preventative effect to future infestations.

    Can you hear box elder bugs in the walls? What do they sound like? I’ve seen elder bugs in our house from time to time so wondering if that’s what it is.

    • @RovePestControl
      @RovePestControl  10 месяцев назад +1

      Box elder bugs don't typically make noise in walls. If you're hearing sounds, it might be worth investigating further.

    I just told them that if they stay they need to pay rent! They didn’t like that and complained that they are termites and have no access to rent money. That’s too bad! Then you aren’t allowed access to my apartment! I haven’t seen a termite in my apartment since!
    Just charge them rent!! They will stay away…

    • @RovePestControl
      @RovePestControl  Год назад

      Termites typically thrive in moist environments, so drying out their habitat can indeed discourage their presence. However, it's best to consult a pest control expert for effective termite management.
