Termites in Tucson, AZ — Signs, Damage & Treatment
Subterranean termites are the most destructive pest in Arizona. They cause billions of dollars in property damage nationwide each year, and Tucson’s warm soil and monsoon moisture make it a hotspot for activity.
How Termites Work
Subterranean termites live in underground colonies that can number in the hundreds of thousands. They build mud tubes from the soil to their food source—your home’s wood. They eat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and can go undetected for years.
Warning Signs of Termites
- Mud tubes on foundation walls or in your garage
- Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
- Discarded wings near windows and doors
- Buckling paint or tiny holes in drywall
- Sagging floors or warped door frames
