Termite Problems - How to handle ?
Hi all,
My tenant just emailed me and said that there are termites ( must be dry wood ) running around on the walls / carpet in their 2nd floor unit.
So, what would you do to try and control this problem and minimize the cost.
I think I read that you must get professional help on this.
There is the Orange Oil options vs fumigation ( hopefully not ).
What suggestions, tips , options do I have ?
Thanks, LA Guy
:cry:

They do both. They most build tunnels and live in the walls. But once in a while they swarm and start boiling out of the walls.
