Termites are silent but destructive — capable of causing thousands of dollars in structural damage before you ever see a warning sign. Florida’s climate is ideal for aggressive termite species, making prevention and professional inspections critical. At Cadenhead Services Pest Control, we provide expert termite detection and treatment for homeowners across Crestview and the surrounding area, using proven methods to protect what matters most.
Common Termites in Florida Homes
Two major species threaten Florida homes:
- Eastern subterranean termites – Widespread across the Southeast, they nest underground and enter homes through mud tubes
- Formosan termites – More aggressive and destructive, they can form massive colonies and even build above-ground nests in walls
Both types feed on wood, paper, insulation, and even soft plastics — and typically go undetected until damage is extensive.
Signs of a Termite Problem
- Mud tubes on foundation walls or piers
- Hollow-sounding wood or bubbling paint
- Swarms of winged termites (alates) near doors or windows
- Discarded wings along baseboards or windowsills
- Frass (termite droppings) resembling sawdust
Even one of these signs should trigger a professional inspection.
