Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Ixonia's conditions — a continental climate where both summer warmth and severe winter cold define the year, more so in the north than the south — create exactly that. Housing here ranges from historic dairy-farm homes to newer lake-country cabins, with basements standard throughout. 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.
