Learn the Signs of a Potential Termite Infestation
Spotting termites early is crucial to minimizing potential damage. With their ability to silently wreak havoc on structural wood, knowing what to look for can make all the difference.
Common warning signs include:
- Mud tubes. Subterranean termites often build pencil-thin mud tubes running along the foundation, walls, or framing to protect themselves from dry air and predators.
- Wood damage. Hollow-sounding wood or wood that’s blistered and splintered could indicate termite feeding activity beneath the surface.
- Discarded wings. After swarming, termites shed their wings near windows or baseboards, leaving small piles of translucent wings behind.
- Frass (termite droppings). Drywood termites leave tiny wooden pellets resembling sawdust near entry points or infested wood.
- Noisy walls. If you hear an unusual clicking or rustling sound inside your walls, it may be termites consuming wood or communicating with one another.
If you’re noticing any of these signs, it’s time to act quickly. Our professional termite inspections get to the root of the issue, providing clarity so you can take the appropriate steps to exterminate infestations and minimize property damage.

How Pasadena’s Climate Impacts Termite Activity
Pasadena’s warm, Mediterranean climate creates an ideal environment for termites to thrive year-round. The city’s mild winters and hot, dry summers can cause soil moisture levels to fluctuate, encouraging subterranean termites to seek shelter and moisture inside local homes. Similarly, Pasadena’s occasional heavy rains during the winter months can soften wood structures, making them more vulnerable to termite invasion.
Drywood termites also find Pasadena particularly welcoming due to this area's abundance of older, wooden homes and furniture. These pests prefer dry, undisturbed wood and can thrive in attics, walls, or even antique furniture. The city’s mixture of historic and modern properties makes termite inspections especially important, as undetected activity can lead to significant structural damage over time.
At Top Termite Co. Inc., we understand how Pasadena’s unique climate and property characteristics contribute to termite behavior. Our inspections are tailored to local conditions so that our recommendations can be both practical and effective. Whether it’s mitigating moisture-related risks or identifying hidden infestations, we’re here to protect what matters most to you.
We know what it takes to defend Pasadena properties from termite colonies. Call Top Termite Co. Inc. at (805) 228-4845 to request an inspection or learn more about the fumigation, treatment, and repair services our contractors offer!
