Virginia’s climate—warm, humid summers and mild winters—is the perfect environment for subterranean termites, the most destructive termite species in the U.S. Unfortunately, many homeowners don’t realize they have a termite problem until the damage is already extensive. These pests work silently behind walls, floors, and foundations, feeding on wood 24/7.
San Pro Pest Control in Richmond, Virginia, has seen firsthand the devastation termites can cause. Early detection is key, and regular inspections from licensed professionals are your best defense.
5 Fast Facts about Termites in Virginia:
-
Subterranean termites are the most common in Virginia and can form colonies with millions of members.
-
Termites cause over $5 billion in property damage annually across the United States.
-
Most homeowners insurance policies do not cover termite damage.
-
Termite infestations can remain hidden for years before you see visible signs.
-
A home with a history of termites can lose resale value without proper treatment and documentation.
The Hidden Cost of Termite Damage
Just because you don’t see bugs doesn’t mean your home is safe. Termites aren’t like ants or roaches. They tunnel underground and silently destroy the structural wood in your home. Over time, this can lead to:
-
Sagging floors
-
Hollow-sounding wood
-
Sticking doors and windows
-
Cracks in drywall or bubbling paint
-
Serious structural damage in extreme cases
In Virginia, where termite activity is high, waiting too long for an inspection could cost thousands in repairs. That’s why San Pro offers free inspections and treatment plans tailored to your home’s needs.
Termites Are Invasive—and Fast
Termites don’t take breaks. Once they’ve found a food source—your home—they feed constantly, day and night. A single colony can contain millions of termites and spread rapidly to nearby structures.
If one house in your neighborhood has termites, yours could be next. Termites can travel over 100 feet underground in search of wood, and older Virginia homes with wood-to-soil contact or crawl spaces are especially vulnerable.
San Pro technicians are trained to identify the signs early and block entry points before colonies take hold.
