Coastal Alabama has native subterranean termites and the invasive Formosan subterranean termite, which forms very large colonies. Formosan swarms happen on warm, humid evenings in late spring.

What treatment involves

An inspection for mud tubes, damaged wood and swarmers.
Liquid soil termiticide around the foundation, or a bait-station system.
Fixing moisture problems that draw termites.

Buying or selling a home? Ask for a wood-destroying insect (WDI) inspection.
