Subterranean termites need soil contact and moisture to thrive, and Woodsville's conditions — a four-season climate with real winter cold, moderated slightly compared to the White Mountains further north — create exactly that. A mix of historic mill-town homes and newer suburban subdivisions tied to the region's Boston-exurb growth, 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.
