Why termite control matters in Cape Cod

Many homeowners are surprised to learn that termites are active even in coastal areas like Cape Cod. The region’s humid summers, moderate winters, and older wood-framed homes make it an ideal environment for Eastern subterranean termites, the most common and destructive termite species in the Northeast.

What makes termites especially dangerous is how silently they work. Termites can chew through wood, flooring, and even drywall for months or years without visible signs. By the time damage is noticeable, the infestation is often well-established.

That’s why professional termite control is essential. Our team at Pest Investigators uses advanced technology and proven treatment techniques to eliminate termite colonies at the source and prevent future infestations.

Signs of a termite infestation

It’s not always easy to spot termites in your home, but knowing the warning signs can help you act quickly:

• Mud tubes on foundation walls or crawl spaces
• Swarming termites around windows and doors, especially in spring
• Discarded wings near windowsills or baseboards
• Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
• Bubbling paint or discolored drywall
• Small piles of frass (termite droppings) near wood structures

If you notice any of these signs, contact our team immediately. Quick intervention can prevent further damage and protect your home’s value.
