Termites 101

Many Ohio residents are not able to recognize termites. They tend to confuse the insects with other winged pests such as flying ants. However, termites do have a few differentiating features, such as straight antennae, equal-length wings, and a uniform waist. If you notice insects on your property, a quick Google search should help you identify termites.

Signs of Termite Infestation

Even if you know what a termite looks like, you still might miss an infestation because you’re more likely to see the signs of termites rather than the insects themselves. Check your home’s exterior for mud tubes as these are often a sign that termites have taken up residence. Some other common signs are damaged wood, peeling paint, and piles of discarded termite wings leftover from swarms.
