Subterranean termites are found in every state except Alaska, and are particularly common in states like California, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Texas. They live in the soil and build mud tunnels to bridge the gap between the dirt and your building's wooden supports.
An aggressive species of subterranean termites, also known as “super termites.” They are found primarily in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Florida, Hawaii, Alabama, and along the Gulf Coast. They live in large colonies and can cause structural damage much more quickly than other types.

A commercial termite prevention program built on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is typically far more cost-effective than a curative one. By using proactive defenses such as bait stations, you can help prevent subterranean termite infestations from reaching your building.
Most commercial property insurance policies do not cover termite damage. Check with your provider to verify your policy coverage.
