Your eaves are very prone to moisture and termite damage. This is the last place water runs off your roof, and if the water is not running off correctly, it may be collecting water and damaging your home, like in this picture.
Also, have you ever noticed when it starts to heat up, termites grow their wings and start flying around? Guess where they go? The eave is usually the easiest access and they love pine, which is typically the wood that your eave boards are made of. So the next time it heats up, pay close attention to those things flying around that look like ants with wings. If they are searching around under your eaves, chances are, they're not flying ants!
