My son's new house and the several adjacent houses are 95% completed.
During a visit to the new construction he saw several termite mud tunnels on
lower floors and climbing up the interior wall of his new build. Curious he
also examined the several adjacent homes and found they all had termite mud
tunnels on lower interior level.
I presume the builder is required to have the property treated with
termicide before building. The evidence would indicate that the
exterminator did not proof the residences properly and perhaps not at all.
How bad is this and remedy suggestions, please.
Thank you,
Seamus J. Wilson

This is hilarious. The termites are eating the house before the construction
is finished!. This is worse than the termites in our area, Southern
California. Here, it takes them a year to get started.

When I was considering a move to Arizona I did some web research on termites
in that area. This is one of the many government websites addressing the
termite problem in Arizona. Just google for termites Arizona construction

Brand new house. And when he sells it he has to, by law, put in the sellers
disclosures that it once had termites. Nice selling point... :-(

get homeowners together at once and hire a licensed exterminator
yesterday for regular treatments. if the neighbors don't fight any
pests together the pests just move around and back.
