Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Springwater's conditions — a humid climate with hot summers and genuinely severe winter snowfall driven by the Great Lakes — create exactly that. A mix of century-old urban neighborhoods in Buffalo and Rochester and newer suburban development further out. 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.
