Termite Problems in Portland, OR
Termites feed on wood and may live deep inside the structure. Treatment alone for the Pacific Dampwood termite is not enough. Repairing the wood and eliminating moisture problems are recommended. The Western Subterranean termite attack wood but returns to the soil. Both may create mud tubes for protection and moisture as they travel about. Treatment in some cases involves trenching inside and outside of foundation walls and sub-slab injection. Consult Pete’s Pest Control for proper identification and measures that can be taken to discourage infestation.

Termites Removal Service
While termites are not known to directly spread diseases to humans, they can carry bacteria and other pathogens on their bodies that can cause disease in humans and animals. In some cases, these diseases can be deadly.
One of the most well-known diseases that termites can spread is leprosy. Leprosy is a bacterial infection that primarily affects the skin and nervous system. It is typically spread through contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person or animal.
Termites can become infected with leprosy when they feed on contaminated materials, such as clothes or bedding, that have been in contact with an infected person. They can then spread the infection to other termites in their colony, as well as to humans and animals who come into contact with them.
Termite infestations can cause extensive damage to homes and other buildings if left untreated.
