Termites can quietly cause thousands of dollars in structural damage to the biggest investment you’ll ever make. The CanMan delivers long-term termite protection across Dallas–Fort Worth — backed by a $250,000 damage warranty.
Backed In Writing
Real protection you can hold us to — not just a promise.
If termites return and cause covered damage, you’re backed by up to $250,000 in protection. Most homeowners never think about termites until the damage is already done — our goal is to make sure you never get that far.
Select what applies to your home. The more that match, the more important long-term protection becomes.
Termites hide, but they leave clues. Tap each sign to learn what it means, why it matters, and when to call.
What it means
Pencil-width tubes of soil running up your foundation, piers, or walls — termites build them to travel between the ground and the wood they feed on.
Why it matters
Active mud tubes mean termites are reaching the wood in your home right now. They’re one of the clearest signs of a live infestation.
When to call
As soon as you spot one. Break a small section open — if it’s rebuilt within days, the colony is active and feeding.
What it means
Groups of winged termites emerging indoors, most often in spring, as a mature colony sends out reproductives to start new ones.
Why it matters
Swarmers inside the home almost always mean an established colony is nearby — often already in or under the structure.
When to call
Right away. An indoor swarm is a strong signal the problem is bigger than what you can see.
What it means
Small piles of identical, teardrop-shaped wings near windowsills, doors, or light sources, shed by swarmers after they land.
Why it matters
Shed wings confirm a swarm happened inside or right against your home — and that termites are looking to nest nearby.
When to call
Soon. Even without live termites in sight, discarded wings are evidence of active termite pressure.
What it means
Wood that sounds hollow when tapped, looks crushed or blistered, or crumbles easily — eaten from the inside out.
Why it matters
By the time damage is visible, termites have usually been feeding for a while. This is where repair costs start to climb.
When to call
Immediately. Visible wood damage means the infestation is well underway and structural areas may be at risk.
What it means
Paint or drywall that bubbles, blisters, or looks water-damaged — but with no plumbing leak or water source behind it.
Why it matters
Termites carry moisture into walls as they tunnel, which can mimic water damage and hide an active infestation.
When to call
When you can’t trace it to a leak. Unexplained bubbling is worth a professional inspection.
You can’t see most termite damage while it’s happening — which is exactly why waiting costs so much.
