Q: What causes termites?

• <div><p>Moisture issues caused by leaky pipes, improper drainage, and poor airflow create environments that are ideal for termites to thrive in.

However, termites are present in every state in the United States, with the exception of Alaska.</p></div>

Q: How do you find a stink bug nest?

• <div><p>Stink bugs don't build nests, but they do like to hang around out of sight. They typically hide in cracks, crevices, and tight spaces within buildings, especially during the colder months. They are often found in attics, crawl spaces, and along walls or ceilings. To find them, give these areas a detailed inspection, particularly around windows, doors, and vents.</p></div>

"They did not have to dig a trench around my house. They used a machine to inject chemical into soil. The technician told me if I dug up shrubs (disturb the soil) to let them know, and they would retreat that section. Also when new pine straw was added let them know. I use this company for my Qtrly pest control also."
