Nashville termite-treatment guide

What should you do if you find possible termite evidence?

Preserve the evidence and arrange an inspection before assuming what caused it. Mud-like tubes, discarded wings, swarmers, and damaged wood can be useful clues, but the species, activity, extent, access, and property conditions need to be evaluated before a termite treatment is recommended.

Evidence to preserve for the inspection

Mud-like tubes appear along a foundation, pier, wall, sill, or other surface.
Discarded wings or a group of swarmers appears near a window, door, or light.
Wood sounds hollow, breaks easily, or shows layered internal damage.
A prior termite area appears active again or new evidence shows up elsewhere.

What an inspection looks at

The insect or material itself, not just a verbal description.
Where the evidence sits relative to soil, moisture, plumbing, and structural wood.
Accessible areas that can help estimate activity and treatment constraints.
Prior reports, treatments, repairs, additions, and unresolved moisture issues.
