Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Secaucus's conditions — a four-season climate with real winter cold and snow, and hot, muggy summers — create exactly that. Dense multi-family buildings and rowhomes throughout the older cities, alongside single-family postwar suburban homes further out, most with basements. Termite colonies can go undetected for years, quietly compromising structural wood the entire time.
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.
