Termite Protection - Do we really need it?
Hopefully you can help me understand the whole "Termite Protection" plans that local vendors would like for you to purchase.
We live in a Courtyard Villa with poured walls. (Solid concrete with stucco exterior) The house was built on a concrete slab and foundation, then solid concrete walls were poured on top of that. Most of our interior walls are constructed with metal studs.
My question is this - Can termites chew through solid concrete to get into our home where wood products (furniture, doors, cabinets, etc....) are located? Nothing on the outside is wood.
Can termites fly and get into the roof trusses which are made of wood?
Thanks,
Gordy
