Why termite damage is typically excluded
Most standard home insurance policies treat termite damage as a "preventable maintenance issue" rather than a sudden, accidental event, similar to how general wear-and-tear is usually excluded — this is standard practice across most insurers, not specific to any one policy.
What this means practically
If termite damage does occur, homeowners are typically responsible for the full cost of both repair and treatment themselves, which makes prevention (rather than relying on a future insurance claim) the only real financial safeguard.
Checking your specific policy
Policies do vary, and some may include limited pest-related coverage under specific circumstances — it is worth checking your own policy’s exclusions directly rather than assuming either way.
Prevention as the real safeguard
Given this gap in typical insurance coverage, a written termite treatment warranty from a professional provider is effectively the closest thing to "insurance" against future termite costs. Regular inspections and proper treatment are the practical way to manage this risk.
