5 Early Signs of a Termite Infestation in Your Home

24 October 2026
Termites work quietly and by the time damage is visible, it is often extensive. Watch for:
1. Mud tubes along foundations and walls.
2. Hollow-sounding timber when tapped.
3. Discarded wings near windowsills after swarming.
4. Tight-fitting doors and windows caused by moisture damage.
5. Frass — small pellets that look like sawdust.
If you spot any of these, a professional inspection can save you far more than it costs.
