Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Myton's conditions — a high-elevation climate shaped by nearby mountains, with cold winters that bring some of the heaviest snowfall in the state — create exactly that. A mix of ski-resort condominiums, mountain homes, and basin-area housing tied to the region's oil and gas industry. 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.
