Protect You Home from Termites By Going Green

Living in South Florida has its perks. The weather is warm all year long. But there are two things that scare every homeowner--hurricanes and termites. A hurricane can be forecasted by a meteorologist. But unless you get your home regularly inspected for termites, they can infiltrate and destroy your home quickly. Each year, hundreds of Broward County homes from Deerfield Beach to Davie will be attacked by termites. Damage caused by these menaces is more common than storms, floods, fire or earthquakes. Despite these scary facts, most homeowners insurance doesn’ t cover termite damage.

There are four common types of termites found in South Florida—drywood, dampwood, subterranean and Formosan. These insects are typically found in areas where the climate is warm, wet and humid. They have the ability to crawl through holes in the soil the size of pencil lead. It only takes two termites to start an entire colony. Once they enter your house, termites have the ability to eat all wood or anything with a cellulose base. This means they are capable of eating paper, cardboard, insulation, asphalt, plaster, metal sheeting and lastic.

There are many different chemicals used bypest control Daviecompanies for termite treatment. But what distinguishes Accurate Pest Control, Inc. from its competitors is its green approach. Accurate Pest Control is serious about protecting your home as well as the environment. One of the revolutionary new tools available to Accurate are Termistop flanges and blockouts. These products can form a strong and enduring physical barrier against termites, without the use of chemicals. Flanges are placed at plumbing and electrical pipes or concrete penetrations around the house where termites can gain entry. The flanges are made from stainless steel mesh. By creating this barrier, it reduces the need to use chemical termiticides around the living space of your home. As people are becoming more environmentally conscious, new buildings are using LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certified construction methods. Termistop products qualify as an effective termite barrier for many green building programs.
