Yep, welcome to the south where there are two types of houses - those that have termites and those that are gonna get 'em!
I closed on my present house in Sept '09 (had a clearance letter) and in the spring of '10 had swarms of termites coming out of the front of my house! Had to have the whole perimeter of the house drilled and treated. Expensive. (But did I mention that I got a reduced rate from the company who issued the letter? Two little words...law suit.) Get treatment and a bond; I had to have the back of my house retreated this past spring and it was free . I think my annual cost is $175.00.
