Understanding the Threat: Eastern Subterranean or
Formosan Termites

Eastern Subterranean Termites
The most common species in Florida, these termites thrive underground and can infiltrate homes through cracks in the foundation. Typically, they are small, ranging from a quarter to an inch in length, with soft, pale bodies that can appear almost translucent. Their bodies and antennae set them apart from other pests. These creatures feed on cellulose found in wood and paper, often going unnoticed for years as they stealthily create mud tubes to traverse from the soil to the wood within your walls. It’s crucial to remain vigilant, as their presence can lead to significant structural damage over time.
Formosan Termites
Formosan termites, often referred to as "Super Termites," pose a formidable threat to any structure. These pests are not only more aggressive than their Eastern counterparts but also inhabit exponentially larger colonies, allowing them to consume wood at an alarming rate. In the humid climate of North Florida, they adapt by building "aerial nests" within walls when moisture is present, completely bypassing the need for contact. Identifiable by their creamy yellow bodies and distinctive long wings, these termites reinforce the critical importance of implementing vigilant control measures.
Why the Difference Matters for Your Home
While both species cause significant damage, the Formosan termite requires a much more intensive treatment strategy due to its colony size and aggressive feeding habits. Understanding the distinction is vital; an Eastern Subterranean infestation might develop slowly over years, whereas a Formosan colony can cause structural damage in months. Our Targeted Treatment Plans are customized based on the specific species found during our detailed inspection, ensuring the most effective barrier is established.
