I bought a house on Cape Cod in 1998. When I purchased, there was some sign of old termite damage, so I had the owners exterminate before the sale.
Since then, over the past 8 years, I have found the remains of 3 swarms of termites in the basement, the most recent this past weekend. The good news is that they are all dead. My suspicion is that they are coming from a hole in the concrete floor which I use to drain my dehumidifier, but I cannot be sure.
The house is wrapped in vinyl so I am not sure if the house is being eaten, and I have seen no other signs of insect damage.
Should my next call be to an exterminator? I know very little about termites (small ants with wings)
