Tom I have lived in the southern US all my life, in Georgia and Florida for the most part. There is an old saying that I have listened to over and over again regarding termites, "in the south, it is not a matter of if you will get them, it is when." Those buggars can cause a ton of damage to a home, and mostly unseen until the wall falls in or the rafters in your ceiling become damaged . I have my home under a treatment and damage bond here in Georgia and will do so as well when we move to our new home in TV. To me it is a small price to pay for piece of mind.
