Q: How do you tell if you have termites or ants?

• <div><p>Ant and termite infestations look very different. Since termites feed on wood, one of the warning signs of their presence is drooping drywall, peeling paint, loose floor tiles, and crumbling wood. On the other hand, ants feed on plant- and animal-based food options, so you&rsquo;ll likely spot a colony near your home&rsquo;s food sources. If you&rsquo;re unsure what type of pest infestation you have, hire a pest control specialist to inspect for you. </p></div>
