Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Window Rock's conditions — a climate that's desert-dry but far from desert-mild — cold winters and a big day-to-night temperature swing define this plateau region — create exactly that. A mix of older single-family homes and manufactured housing, spread over large distances with lower density than almost anywhere else in the state. Termite colonies can go undetected for years, quietly compromising structural wood the entire time.
We start with a full inspection of the foundation, crawl space, and any wood-to-soil contact points, looking for mud tubes, damaged wood, or swarmer activity. Treatment options include soil treatment around the foundation perimeter or bait-station monitoring systems that intercept foraging termites before they reach the structure. Every job includes a wood-destroying-insect inspection report.
