California homeowners, beware: Termite season is here, and these silent destroyers could be making a meal of your biggest investment - your home.

The problem? Termites don’t announce their presence. They live in hidden, hard-to-reach places, quietly causing costly damage before you even know they’re there. That’s why a professional termite inspection is your first line of defense against an infestation.

Why You Need a Termite Inspection - Before It’s Too Late

Many homeowners put off scheduling an inspection, falling into the "out of sight, out of mind" trap. But by the time you see obvious signs of termites, the damage is already done. Regular inspections can catch termites early, saving you from expensive repairs and major headaches down the road.

What to Expect During a Clark Termite Inspection

With subterranean termite swarm season approaching – typically after warm, rainy days – it’s more important than ever to have a trained expert check your home for early warning signs of an infestation.

At Clark Pest Control, our licensed and highly trained termite inspectors take a thorough, top-to-bottom approach, focusing on the most vulnerable areas, including:

• Foundation and crawlspaces – Checking for mud tubes and moisture buildup.
• Windows and door frames – Inspecting for wood damage and signs of termites entering your home.
• Utility access points – Looking for cracks and crevices that pests use to get inside.
• Wood surfaces – Tapping wood to detect hollowness, a red flag for termite damage.
• Attics and basements – Searching for discarded termite wings or swarm activity.

Signs of Termites to Watch For

While a professional inspection is the best way to detect termites, be on the lookout for these warning signs:

• Crumbling or damaged wood
• Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
• Peeling or bubbling paint that looks like water damage
• Mud tubes along walls or foundation
• Swarms of flying termites in or around your home
