Know the Warning Signs

Unfortunately, most people don’t realize that they have a termite issue until significant damage has occurred and they’re facing costly, extensive repairs to the structure of their home or building .  The two primary species of pests found by termite inspection companies in Miami Gardens are the dry wood and subterranean varieties.  In addition to these two, there is the Asian and Formosan varieties.  These have become more of a problem over the past 5 years as their populations have grown 30%. Keeping a tab on the infestation becomes important.
