Even though the calendar says we’re still entrenched in the winter season, it’s never too early in the year to take measures to prevent your home from becoming a buffet to termites.

Here are some tips you should consider to keep a termite infestation away from your Columbia SC home.

If you haven’t had a termite inspection done on your Columbia SC home in the last year or two, now would be a good time to contact a local pest control company which specializes in termite protection and have them come out and give your home a thorough termite inspection.

Most reputable companies also offer annual contracts that protect you from the financial devastation of finding out you have thousands of dollars in damage to your Columbia SC home because of a termite invasion.
