Home Run Pest & Termite Control, a family-owned pest management company serving North Texas, is urging Wylie homeowners to take action as termite activity increases across the region. With warm temperatures and clay-rich soil creating ideal conditions for termites, local families are at greater risk of costly infestations this season.

According to the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), termites cause more than $5 billion in property damage every year, and most of these repairs are not covered by standard homeowners’ insurance. In fast-growing communities like Wylie, the combination of new construction and older established homes makes the city especially vulnerable.

“Termites are often called the ‘silent destroyers’ because they can cause severe damage before a homeowner even realizes there’s a problem,” said Johnny Bennett, owner of Home Run Pest & Termite Control. “In Wylie, we’re seeing higher activity due to recent weather patterns, which makes annual inspections more important than ever.”

Home Run Pest & Termite Control recommends that Wylie homeowners look for common warning signs, including:

• Swarms of winged termites near windows or doors

• Mud tubes on exterior walls or foundations

• Wood that sounds hollow when tapped

• Peeling paint or small pinholes in drywall

The company provides advanced inspection services and customized termite protection plans, including preventative treatments and proven control systems that stop colonies before they spread.

“Our mission is to protect families and their biggest investment — their home,” added Bennett. “We’re proud to be a part of the Wylie community and want residents to know we’re here as a local resource to help prevent devastating termite damage.”
