Termite control in Memphis, TN?
Memphis' rich music history spans Graceland to Beale Street, but did you know that the Bluff City is the birthplace of more than just rock’ n’ roll? Terminix was founded right in the heart of Memphis, TN, by local hardwood flooring company owner E.L. Bruce. After creating the first termite treatment with senior chemist Frank Lyons, Terminix was created with the formula to “nix” termites.
If you’re seeing signs of termites in your home, Terminix offers termite control services in Memphis, TN to “nix” these tiny destroyers. Looking for some termite prevention methods you can do on your own to help you prevent your home from becoming a termite’s meal? Check out the tips below.
Remove moisture sources
Termites are attracted to moisture sources in your home's foundation and crawl spaces. Start by fixing leaks, including repairing leaking faucets, water pipes, and AC units. Ensure your home's drainage systems, such as storm drains, gutters, and downspouts, are clean and functional, directing water away from the foundation. Keep all sprinkler systems pointed away from your home's foundation and use vapor barriers or dehumidifiers to maintain a dry basement or crawl space.
Reduce soil-to-wood contact
The most common termite species in Memphis, TN are subterranean termites. These pests can easily access your home through areas of contact between wood and soil, like crawl spaces and basements. You can help prevent this by removing all lumber, wood, mulch, paper, cardboard, or other cellulose-based material from around your foundation. Stack firewood at least 20 feet away from your home and create a four-inch barrier between landscaping mulch and your home's foundation. Regularly inspect wooden structures like fences and porches for signs of termite damage and replace rotted or infested wood. If you notice damage to wood structures around your home, contact your local Terminix branch for pest control in Memphis, TN.
Keep plants away
Although plants can add beauty to your landscaping, they can also provide termites with a direct pathway into your home. Plants can also make it more difficult to notice termite damage on your wood siding or entry points like cracks in your home's foundation. To help prevent termites from entering your home, keep all landscaping and grass trimmed and allow for at least 12 inches between plants and the exterior of your home.
Seal gaps
Termites can enter your home through the tiniest of spaces. Inspect your home's foundation, windows, and doorframes regularly for cracks and seal them. Pay special attention to areas where utility lines and pipes enter your home, as these are common entry points for termites. If you notice any gaps or cracks in your home's foundation, schedule a termite inspection with a pest control company in Memphis, TN.
Remove food sources
Termites are attracted to cellulose-based materials, which can be found all around our homes. To deter them, it’s important to eliminate potential food sources. Remove any dead trees or rotting wood from your property, as well as tree stumps and leftover construction materials. Don't leave newspapers, cardboard boxes, and other paper products in your home for extended periods of time, and make sure to recycle these products away from your home’s foundation.
