Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Lambrook's conditions — Arkansas has a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and generally mild winters, though the northern Ozark highlands run cooler than the Mississippi Delta lowlands in the east. — create exactly that. Typical rural Arkansas housing mix of older frame homes, mobile homes, and modest newer construction. 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.
