What is the difference between Drywood and subterranean termites?
Drywood termites live in the wooden areas of a structure most commonly found in exterior fascia and wood siding. Drywood termites can also have colonies in wall voids and in attics where they can go undetected. Subterranean Termites live in the soil and from one colony can attack multiple areas and even multiple structures. Subterranean termites cause more damage than Drywood termites because there are so many more termites in a single colony. Sub termites also build a shelter tube from mud to protect them from moisture and predators.
