Generally, subterranean termites must maintain contact with soil to survive. However, there are occasions where native subterranean
termites can live above ground in structures and be completely cut off from soil contact; although, this is not common. The probability

- Treatment under concrete floor slab, including porches or patios abutting the house;
- Trenching and treating soil around the concrete slab perimeter outside of and adjacent to the house;
- Drilling and treating the void behind the rock or brick veneer.
The soil beneath the floor slab perimeter inside the footer or stem wall must be treated. Treatment also may be required along both sides of interior support walls, next to
interior partitions, and along all cracks and expansion joints in the slab if termites are found in these locations. Sometimes, it is necessary to treat the interior slab
perimeter by drilling horizontally or at an angle through the exterior foundation walls. This method is often used to treat kitchens and bathrooms from outside the structure.
Holes drilled in the slab should be spaced no further than 12 inches apart to achieve an effective, continuous barrier. The actual sub-slab treatment is accomplished by
injecting the termiticide through the concrete slab with a special hollow cylindrical rod inserted vertically through the previously drilled holes.
Trenching of soil requires excavating a 6 inch to 8 inch wide by 6 inch to 8 inch deep trench adjacent to the outside foundation wall. Homes on pier and beam foundations
are additionally trenched by excavating soil in an area 6 inches to 8 inches wide by 4 inches to 6 inches deep around all piers and utility pipes beneath the home, and
along inside and outside foundation walls. Trenching is labor intensive and time consuming but provides a better, more continuous barrier than rodding alone. Make sure
that all soil back-filled into the trench is treated.
