Read about termites and you will find that Florida is the perfect breeding ground for them. 2 kinds of termites. Dry wood treated with tenting. No preventative for the and Subterranean which is what they are trying to prevent. Do what makes you feel comfortable with.

And if you ever seen termite infestation in the exterior walls of a house,
that would be the best lesson to get protection.
