Understanding Desert Termites

Desert termites are a unique species, adapted to survive in dry environments where moisture is scarce. They thrive in arid climates and, like other termites, can cause significant damage to structures if left unchecked.

Key Characteristics

  • Appearance: Desert termites are small and pale, with light-brown bodies and translucent wings, making them tough to find.
  • Behavior: These termites are normally subterranean. This means that they build underground complex tunnel systems in order to search for food and moisture.

Signs of Infestation

  • Mud Tubes: Desert termites would leave along the walls or foundation small pencil-thin mud tubes made as they move in between their nest and the food sources.
  • Hollow Wood: Upon hitting the wood containing the desert termite, a hollow sound will be produced, which serves as an indicator of termite infestation.
  • Swarming: Desert termites swarm in springs and summers to create new colonies. Discarded wings around windows and doors form a common sign.
