Information About DIY Termite Control

Termite control is big business just about everywhere. For the most part it's the subterranean termites that cause the big problem in the southwest. But there are actually many different species of termites other than the subterranean. Go figure! The thing is, Phoenix termites are a lot like Dallas termites, Atlanta termites, Charlotte termites and all of the other termites in the country: they can pose a real problem, both structurally and financially, if they're not evicted.

Subterranean Termites

Subterranean Termites are found throughout the United States and live in what are sometimes huge underground colonies - up to a million individuals per colony! As most of us know, they eat wood - more specifically, they get their nutrients from the cellulose found in the wood. They have a combination of live protozoa and bacteria that live in their guts which process the parts of the wood that the termites cannot. The wouldn't survive with out them. That always makes me wonder how that whole symbiotic relationship ever got started in the first place.....
