Subterranean Termite Treatment
Complete treatment and barrier protection against destructive subterranean termites
Trust Arcalyde to handle it — professionally, safely, and effectively.
Termites are insects that can cause severe damage to furniture, structures, and other cellulose-based materials, which are their primary food source. The termites seen on the surface are worker termites, while most of the colony remains hidden inside the nest. A proper inspection is essential to identify the nest location, determine the termite species, and assess the severity of the infestation.
What Attracts Subterranean Termites to Your Home?
Subterranean termites are attracted to moisture, cellulose-rich materials, and direct contact between soil and wood structures. They thrive near leaky pipes, poor drainage systems, and areas where wooden elements meet the ground — such as decks, fence posts, and wood siding near the foundation. These termites live underground and construct mud tubes to reach above-ground wood sources, often causing extensive structural damage long before they are detected. Mulch piled against the foundation, wood debris stored near the house, and gutters that trap moisture are all major factors that accelerate subterranean termite infestations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are mud tubes and why are they a warning sign?
Mud tubes are pencil-sized tunnels made from soil, wood particles, and termite saliva. Subterranean termites build them to travel between their underground colony and wood food sources while staying protected from open air. Finding mud tubes along your foundation or walls is a strong indicator of an active infestation.
How do subterranean termites differ from drywood termites?
Subterranean termites live in the soil and must maintain contact with moisture, traveling up through the ground to reach wood. Drywood termites live entirely within the wood they infest and do not need soil contact. The treatments required for each are different, making accurate identification essential.
How long does a subterranean termite treatment last?
Liquid termiticide treatments applied to the soil around the foundation typically last 5–10 years, depending on the product used and soil conditions. Termite bait systems provide ongoing monitoring and colony elimination with annual inspections to maintain protection.
