Subterranean termites commonly enter structures through protected routes from the soil. Shelter tubes on a foundation, slab penetrations or crawl-space piers are reasons to request an inspection, although a tube alone does not determine the species or how much concealed damage exists. Jacksonville homes with masonry walls still contain wood and other cellulose materials that can be affected.
A treatment proposal should identify the evidence, accessible entry routes and proposed control method. Soil-applied liquid products and bait programs work differently; product choice, soil conditions, hard surfaces, wells and access affect a plan. Ask how attached slabs and additions will be addressed and what follow-up is included. Species identification matters when comparing coverage and the proposed scope.
Treatments must follow the selected product label. Do not disturb treated soil or apply household insecticides around a suspected colony before discussing the findings.
