Termites & Fumigation
Hi all. I own some property in Southern California and the Bay Area. I know that termites are very common in California. I spoke to a few termite inspectors and was told that properties should be fumigated once every 7-10 years, and up to 15 years if treated with material that remains and reduces termite infestation in the years after fumigation. Would love to hear some further opinions and feedback on this.
