Westmorland's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. Slab-on-grade stucco homes and resort-style construction dominate, built for extreme heat with irrigated landscaping common around golf-course communities. Combined with the local climate — one of the hottest, driest climates in the country, with a large seasonal population drawn by mild winters — 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.
