Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Fleetwood's conditions — a climate shaped by the region's position near the Delaware River and Atlantic influence, with genuine but comparatively mild winters — create exactly that. Century-old brick rowhome construction dominates the urban core, with more spacious suburban homes further out. 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.
