Default Letter from Massey

Massey has had our termite coverage for almost five years in both of our Village homes. Yesterday we got a letter from them stating that we are not covered for DRYWOOD termites. So, for the low price of $500.00, they will treat our attic and for an additional 25.00 per year per house we are also covered for this particular termite. I am ticked. It took them this long to figure out I wasn't covered for ALL termites? What would have happened if drywood termites had gotten into my attic before this letter? They go on to say that state regs only required the builder to treat for subterranean termites at the time of construction and that the attic is the most vulnerable area of the home. Every year when they inspect our home, they go into the attic. If I wasn't covered, why did they do that? I do not mind if they raise their rates a bit, but this seems like an outright gouge. Did anyone else get the letter?
What do you think about this?
