I also grew up in the south, in St. Petersburg about a two hour drive from here. The house I lived in from 1960 to 1967 was stick built in the 1940's with shingles veneer. My dad and all our neighbors didn't use any termite companies, bug men, fertilizer people, etc., the homeowners did it all themselves.
I'm just like him and the OP. We live in a masonry CYV with stucco, poured concrete on both sides, the back and the driveway. I do my own spraying and haven't seen a bug since we moved here.
I just took a screen shot off Google Maps and the home in St. Pete looks pretty bad, but it's still standing after 65 or so years.
