Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Kalida's conditions — a four-season climate shaped by the Ohio River valley, with less lake-effect snow than Cleveland or Akron — create exactly that. Older brick and hillside homes throughout Cincinnati, alongside Dayton-area suburban construction tied to the region's aerospace industry. 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.
