FYI (For Your Information)

Why protect a major investment?

Home owners spend billions of dollars a year buying and up keeping a major investment, their HOMES and forget the silent, yet destructive TERMITE. There are two types of homes/properties in Oklahoma. The type that already has termites and the type that will eventually have termites.
Termites alone can cause thousands of dollars in damage to one property, home and/or business if left unnoticed and untreated. One way to help manage and prevent termites is to have an annual inspection performed on your home and/or property. If we as consumers know that there is a problem early, then we have a better opportunity to help rid the home of this seriously devastating wood destroying insect.
It’s funny because property owners think that the only time to worry about termites is in the Spring (understandably). Spring is typically when termites can be observed and are noticed by a property owner. The reason for noticing the winged wood destroyers (swarmers) is that they fly in swarms dispersing and starting new colonies (mating). Spring triggers the swarmers with warmer temperatures and rainfall causing them to emerge into the air. But, don’t be fooled, termites DO still exist and eat during cooler months.
Knowing you have termites and waiting to have the property treated, will just result in more damage, which results in more money and time invested. Pretending like we don’t know will not make the problem termites go away. We all like to save a buck or two, but when dealing with termites you want to have the property inspected and treated. Most importantly, don’t forget to follow up with the annual inspection. Maintaining an annual inspection not only gives you peace of mind, but helps prevent any further damage that can wreak havoc in one’s largest investment.
Not knowing that you have termites can be devastating and costly in the long run. You and your realtor at one time or another spent hours, days, weeks, months or maybe even years looking for the perfect home for you and possibly a family or family to be. You have already invested thousands of dollars in mortgage payments and insurance. You have painted walls and remodeled bathrooms, but you haven’t kept up your annual termite inspection. All of a sudden, the paint is flaking off and wood seems to be deteriorating before your eyes. WHAT IS WRONG? YOU HAVE TERMITES!! You stop and think to yourself, “If only I had kept up my annual inspection, then the termite company would be treating this area of infestation for free.” You carry insurance on your home for flooding and tornados, your family for possible hospitalization, your car for a cracked windshield.

WHY NOT PROTECT A MAJOR INVESTMENT (YOUR HOME) FOR TERMTES?

Maybe you have had your property inspected and the property was cleared for termites. If you do not renew the annual every year, where is your protection? A simple answer is that you do not have any protection. There isn’t a termite professional that can see through walls without certain devices, but isn’t some protection better than none. Make educated choices on termite professionals and get your annual inspection done today.
