Soil Treatments of Strutures

The best time to provide protection against termites is during the planning and construction phase of a structure. The major objective of subterranean termite control is to establish a chemical barrier between the soil, where termites live and the wood in the home. A thorough pre-construction treatment is needed to protect the structure from termites. Treating a structure for termite control requires specialized equipment that homeowners usually do not have on hand.

Treatment of Concrete Slabs

One of the most common types of construction in the Mid-South is the concrete slab resting on the soil. Often a slab will crack or shrink away from the foundation wall allowing termites to infest the wood above. In addition, concrete slabs usually have many other points of entry such as bath traps, plumbing outlets, construction joints, etc. Treatment to these areas requires establishing a horizontal barrier. The soil underneath and around the concrete slab must be treated with the termiticide before the concrete slab is poured.
