These voracious creatures may thrive in warmer climates with mild winters, BUT areas with snowfall and frigid temperatures are still susceptible to termite infestations. While it’s commonly thought that termites hibernate in winter weather, this is not the case. As long as they have access to wood they can live anywhere.
Since some termites remain just as active in the winter as they do in warm months, homes are still vulnerable to structural damage. Often, colonies invade homes prior to winter as a means to prepare for the cold weather and seek warmth. During this time, the pests continue their destructive eating habits and gobble up wood found inside the home with tunnels.
If you live in the Quincy and Hannibal area you may learn this lesson the hard way. All termites do not go to sleep in the dead of winter. Please keep this in mind, and keep Double G Pest Control in mind as well. Twelve months a year Double G is ready to rid you of pests.
