Aside from taking advantage of our termite prevention services, you can do many other things to keep termites away.

Here are the things to keep termites away, according to by TheOtherSidePestControl

  • Do not glue wooden trellises or various types of wooden structures to the exterior walls of your home.
  • Keep scrap lumber, mulch, wood waste, firewood, and sawdust out of your home.
  • Make sure you prune dense trees thoroughly to prevent branches from growing on the foundation of your home.
  • Repair cracked faucets and water lines, both indoors and outdoors, as soon as possible.
  • Reduce humidity by making sure your crawlspace and attic are both appropriately ventilated.
  • Prevent termites from having an easy way to access your house by sealing all the cracks in your foundation.
