Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Coulee Dam's conditions — a climate defined by irrigation-dependent agriculture, hot summers, and cold winters — create exactly that. Housing here ranges from historic farm-town construction to newer rural homes, adapted to a much drier climate than the rest of the state. Termite colonies can go undetected for years, quietly compromising structural wood the entire time.
Because termite colonies operate underground and out of sight, our process leans heavily on inspection: checking every foundation wall, sill plate, and crawl space for activity. From there we deploy either soil treatment or a Sentricon-style bait and monitoring program, both backed by a written service report.
