All three types of termites exist in Florida, drywood (flying) dampwood, and subterranean. Is the risk large or small here in TV? That's your call. Have there been infestations here? Don't know but I have seen some tented homes that were being treated for something. Do some buyers want a termite bond in place before buying? I am sure some do. Anyway we are wasting our breath here as it seems you have made up your mind that it is all a scam.
I was trying to avoid that type of comment. I an honestly trying to find out any information I can about the risk of termites in my CBS home. I do not want to buy something just because everyone else does. I still cannot find out what a FLYING TERMITE is ? I am also very curious about what type of bug spray in the attic will last for 10 years and if it that powerful do I want it sprayed in my home and breathing it in especially when there is no evidence of any bugs at all. It does seem to me that some people are not very knowledgeable or just don’t care about what their Termite Treatment involves. I am not being critical but some may be embarrassed to know that they might have purchased something relying only on the information from the salesman and because everyone else has it.

BTW when I bought here 11 years ago O bought the entire Massey package and it was not cheap. Including GREEN UP. And the only thing GREEN That came up came out of my wallet into Massey’s pocket. Do I think there is a SCAM? I don’t know but I am very skeptical.

I hoped to get more information from some of the very smart people on TOTV bu so far .....nothing.
