A local exterminator said that this is the worst season for termites ever in the metro area. 16 WAPT caught up with Ray Herrington at a home in Madison. He said that the termites swarmed around the window of the home but didn't get inside. The owners said that they aren't taking any chances. I've seen walls completely eaten out.
Windows fall out of houses.
If they go unattended to, they'll continue to eat until nothing's left. Herrington said that the quick spring warm up and winter rains were perfect for breeding more termites. All rights reserved.
