Rosalia's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. A blend of older agricultural-area homes and small-town construction, built with the region's severe weather in mind. Combined with the local climate — a continental climate with hot summers, cold winters, and significant year-to-year rainfall variation typical of the wheat belt — soil-to-wood contact points around the foundation are the most common entry route.
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.
