\"Listen
Listen for Termites in Walls<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Termites are not commonly seen by the naked eye, but the damage they cause by feeding on wood is quite visible and shouldn’t be taken lightly.<\/p>\n

If you suspect you have a termite infestation<\/a> in your New Jersey home, listen for the following three sounds that have been identified as being termite sounds, though plenty of damage can occur within your walls without a sound. If you think you are hearing one of the following sounds, call our Monmouth County Termite Control to be certain.<\/p>\n

Rattling<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you hear a rattling taking place inside a wall, it may be because some termites have become disturbed by something and are acting out in frustration. The rattling is caused by the termites knocking their heads against the tunnel walls, creating a sound that is audible in normal listening ranges.<\/p>\n

Rustling in the Walls<\/strong><\/p>\n

While drywood termites are tunneling through surface wood within walls, a paper rustling sound can be heard.<\/p>\n

Hollow Wall Sounds<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you suspect termites, tap on the wall or wood in question. If it sounds hollow, you may have a termite infestation. This is a very reliable method for identifying a termite problem because of the differences.<\/p>\n

Do you think you may have termites<\/a> or carpenter ants<\/a> in your home? Please contact us to schedule a time with one of our Monmouth County Termite Control inspectors to identify the root cause of your infestation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
