TERMITES

A new problem has entered the horizon, like I need another source of aggravation. Our new pest control company rep looked in the attic, about to bomb it for white-footed and carpenter ants, and said, “Uh oh, these look like drywood termite droppings."  The next day, he sends over another guy from his firm who specializes in termite inspections.  Yup, the man said, you’ve got ‘em. So I went on the Internet and signed up for two more free evaluations. Heard from one of them already. Yes, you’re infected, and it’ll cost you.... We’re waiting on Terminix tomorrow. They all give the same treatment: a chemical that’s blown into our attic for at least $1100 and up. Then they offer a yearly contract for about $150 to inspect and retreat as necessary. There’s always something!  The good news is, the termites haven’t swarmed yet.  Ugly thought.

We had 'em and they ate up an entire bedroom and bath. Hungry buggers. We rebuilt and put some traps in the ground. So far, so good. I think they are still full from the bed and bath!

Ew, Don. How did you discover you had them? We wouldn't have known except we started a new pest control service and when the guy poked his head in the attic to fog for ants, he saw their droppings.
