Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and High Springs's conditions — a climate shaped by pine forest and river terrain, humid but with more seasonal variation than South Florida — create exactly that. Wood-frame and brick homes are more common here than the concrete-block construction typical of South Florida. 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.
