What sounds do termites make?

Wondering how they sound?

This first video clearly displays the “knocking” sound Termite soldiers make with their heads when they are alarmed. It’s like a drum beat to evacuate.

This second video below clearly illustrates what termites will do when they are disturbed. If an opening is made into their workings, the soldier termites will quickly rush to defend the breach. They will bite your fingers and extrude a milky latex liquid. They also make a knocking noise with their heads to raise the alarm. If you leave them alone, they will plug the breach with a mud packing. They never like to be exposed.

If it is termites - what should you do

Ok, you are pretty sure you have termites (White Ants). What should you do now?

Don’t disturb them! Don’t be tempted to reach for a can of bug spray and become the exterminator. If you alarm them, by instinct, they’ll flee back to their nest until they feel it’s safe to come back. This means when you call a professional Termite Technician, (and you should) they don’t have the opportunity to identify the type of termite and might not be able to detect them in other areas in your home.
