Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Daisytown's conditions — a four-season climate shaped by the region's river valleys, with real winter cold and consistent summer humidity — create exactly that. Older brick and wood-frame homes built into steep hillsides, many with stone foundations and full basements from the region's steel-era boom. Termite colonies can go undetected for years, quietly compromising structural wood the entire time.
We start with a full inspection of the foundation, crawl space, and any wood-to-soil contact points, looking for mud tubes, damaged wood, or swarmer activity. Treatment options include soil treatment around the foundation perimeter or bait-station monitoring systems that intercept foraging termites before they reach the structure. Every job includes a wood-destroying-insect inspection report.
