It is possible to sell a home when there is a termite issue.\u00a0 But first, let\u2019s make sure that you have an actual termite infestation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6 Telltale Signs that Indicate a Termite Infestation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A professional inspection will help determine if termites are present and the extent of the damage they may have caused already.\u00a0 Although trying to determine if you have a termite problem can be a challenge for the untrained individual, there are 6 telltale signs that your home may be infested.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>Clicking noises and hollow wood<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 termites typically make a monotonous clicking sound when communicating with one another. If your wood has been hollowed out by these critters, it will make a thud sound when you tap on your walls.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Frass<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 this is another term for termite droppings and is visual evidence that you have a termite problem in your home.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Mud tubes<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 subterranean termites build underground tunnels that resemble mud tubes. Chances are you have termites or a new colony has moved into your home if you can see these.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Peeling paint<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 termites will start eating the drywall in your home when they attack the structural wood used in its construction. This enables moisture to seep in and causes the paint on your walls to peel.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Swarms<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 termites will shed their wings after swarming and leave them in large piles. Any evidence of this could indicate a significant infestation.<\/li>\n<li><strong><em>Visual confirmation<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 if you physically see swarming or worker termites lying around your home, then you have a large termite problem.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you choose to have the termites removed before putting your home on the market, be sure to keep all the proper documentation related to this such as bills and invoices, home inspection before and after removal and repairs and the original termite report.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you don\u2019t want to deal with clearing up the termite damage and infestation\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you are not up for dealing with the hassle of your termite damage and infestation, there is an option to sell.
