Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Johnsonburg's conditions — a climate shaped by the region's proximity to the coast and the New York City urban heat island, with genuine seasonal extremes — create exactly that. Historic brick and frame two- and three-family homes make up much of the older housing stock, alongside newer suburban development. 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.
