Warmer Temperatures Brings Out the Termites
This NBC 17 article reports that regions like North Carolina start seeing an invasion of termites this time of year as the temperatures warm.
The expert interviewed by this article estimated that "as much as 60 percent of the homes in North Carolina have or will see termite activity in their lifetime."
One of the common termite symptoms is the discolored, soft or decaying baseboards.
The expert described the typical home treatment that he uses: "digging trenches inside and outside a house's foundation all the way around the home and filling them with insecticide."
