Termite season here in Spring, Texas and the surrounding areas is nothing to ignore. Each year, the speed and destructive power of termites cause major damage to homes and businesses across the region.

Whenever a concerned homeowner or business owner contacts our pest control technicians here at Hart Pest Control, we’re happy to lend our expert advice and tackle the problem.

Here are 3 ways to prepare for termite season.

Clear Your Yard Clutter

The key to keeping termites away is to make sure they have nowhere to hide and nothing to eat.

Start by cleaning up the areas surrounding your home or business and removing any dense or heavy growth.

Why start there? Well, termites love to take advantage of any food source, and old weeds and bushes make for perfect breeding areas. Additionally, remember to keep any loose wood off of the ground.

Train Your Bushes and Plants To Repel Termites

Consider adding plants around the base of your home or business that repel most pests. Mint, for example, works remarkably well at keeping bugs at bay.

Similar to lemongrass, vetiver grass is also known to repel termites as well as other insects. This type of grass secretes a natural toxin that helps to drive termites away.

Have Your Home or Business Professionally Inspected
