Florida Building Code has required that new construction to treat for termites prior to a slab being poured for the last 50 plus years. Unless you have signs of termites in your home their is no need for additional treatment. Drywood termites are another animal that can only be treated by whole or partial fumigation of the house. If you have signs of termites, fine out what kind of termite you have before treating. But if you let the soil or landscaping build up around the perimeter of your house to were the termites have access above the sole plate of the wall in the slab, they can enter your structure from that excess buildup.
