Termite control in Casa Grande is mostly about subterranean termites. The desert subterranean termite and the arid-land subterranean termite both live in the soil and need moisture to survive. They reach wood by building mud tubes up the slab edge, through cracks in the slab or along plumbing that comes up through the floor.
There are two main ways to treat. A liquid termiticide barrier puts product into the soil around the foundation, often by trenching and by drilling through patio or garage slabs. It works fast, and many products protect for several years. Bait stations go in the ground every 10 to 20 feet around the home, and termites carry the bait back to the colony. Baits take longer but use far less product.
Drywood termites are much less common here than in coastal California, so tenting is rarely the answer for a Casa Grande home. The technician confirms the species first. Keep drip lines and sprinklers aimed away from the stucco, keep wood mulch off the foundation and fix leaks at hose bibs, since damp soil at the slab draws termites in.
