Said watch out for door to door scammers asking for payment because they may not be part of my contract. She said they treat the ground where termites breed and once they get in it could be too late because they attack the wood very quickly. She also added that they are in the large trees around the villages and it is not good to leave your garage open for long because a few could fly in and you don't want that. So I try to remember to close mine when not in use. They have been great coming out to check my sprinklers.

Subterranean termites are not in trees, they are underground. There are several different types of termites and some of them may be in trees. But, the most common treatment for termites is for the subterranean type. Massey offers an attic treatment for flying termites, but I don't think it is needed because, if you get this type of termite, you will be able to detect them before they do much damage.
