What are subterranean termites?

Subterranean termites can cause the most damage to any termite species. These termites build distinctive tunnels, often referred to as “mud tubes,” to reach food sources and protect themselves from open air. They eat wood 24 hours a day, seven days a week, using their saw-toothed jaws to bite off small fragments of wood one piece at a time.

Over time, termites can critically damage a building structure, sometimes causing a total collapse. Termites threaten homeowners across the country, as they’re found in every state in the U.S except Alaska. In nature, termites are beneficial because they break down cellulose into usable nutrients.

The biomass resulting from this process is recycled into the soil as humus. Subterranean termites are, therefore, considered important in our ecosystem. Problems occur when termites attack the wooden elements of homes, businesses, and warehouses built by humans. The presence of termites is often not readily noticed because their activity is hidden behind wallboards, siding, or wood trim.

Homeowners in all areas of Texas should watch for subterranean termites and take precautions against infestations.
