Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Ashville's conditions — a four-season climate typical of the Midwest, with real winter cold and consistent summer humidity — create exactly that. A mix of established Columbus-area neighborhoods and some of the fastest new-home construction in the Midwest, most with basements. Termite colonies can go undetected for years, quietly compromising structural wood the entire time.
Termite treatment starts with identifying exactly where the colony is accessing the structure, since a targeted approach is far more effective than a blanket treatment. Depending on the property, we recommend either a liquid soil treatment creating a barrier around the foundation, or a bait-station monitoring system that's checked on a schedule.
