Nixa's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. A mix of historic hill-country homes and Springfield-area suburban development, many built into the region's hilly, karst terrain. Combined with the local climate — a climate that behaves somewhat like the upper South, with shorter, milder winters than Kansas City or St. Louis — soil-to-wood contact points around the foundation are the most common entry route.
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.
