Termite damage can be absolutely devastating for Nassau County property owners. These wood-eating pests threaten the structural integrity of your home or business, feeding on the construction of the structure. That’s why termite prevention is so important.

If you’re wondering what you should do if you think you have termites in Nassau County, here are some helpful tips:

• Apply weather stripping around all your windows and doors.

• Avoid any wood-to-soil contact.

• Eliminate rotting or moisture-damaged wood from the property.

• Fix rotten areas of the roof to prevent entry.

• Install a dehumidifier in moisture-rich areas of the house.

• Keep wood stored away from the perimeter of your house.

• Reduce excess moisture around the property.

• Repair leaky faucets and faulty pipes.

• Thoroughly inspect all wood before bringing it onto your property. 

• Use vent fans in kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.
