Different Types Of Termites
Drywood Termite
Drywood termites are sneaky little insects that like to hang out in dry wood instead of in the ground or damp wood, which is where most other termites prefer to be. Drywood termites thrive in dry, hardwood materials. Unlike subterranean termites, they don’t need contact with soil, so they often infest furniture, framing, and other wooden structures in homes.
Dampwood Termite
Dampwood termites are a unique type of termite that need more humidity and access to water compared to drywood termites. Unlike subterranean termites, they don’t search for food in the soil. They typically prefer to live in decaying or damp wood, such as logs, stumps, and wood that’s been exposed to moisture. This makes them common in areas with leaks, like basements or bathrooms, or in places where wood is in contact with water, like wooden structures close to the ground.
Subterranean Termite
The most common species of termites in the US is subterranean termites. Earlier, we mentioned that they are responsible for 80-95% of all termite damage (this includes both Eastern and Formosan subterranean termites). This is partly because a well-established colony can have thousands to millions of termites – one colony can cover one acre under a home or multiple homes. Subterranean termites are highly organized social insects that live in large colonies underground. Their behavior is fascinating and built around their need for moisture and food.
