Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Roy's conditions — a four-season Intermountain West climate, with real winter snow and hot, dry summers — create exactly that. A mix of established suburban neighborhoods and newer subdivisions built during the valley's steady population growth, most with basements. 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.
