Regardless of how your building is constructed or the type of foundation it
has, termites can find a way in, concealing themselves from exposure by
building special "shelter tubes." Because they work from the inside out,
it's likely that you won't see signs of infestation until the damage is
done.
 Concrete Slabs
Termites can infest your business through expansion joints where the floor
adjoins the foundation, around plumbing and electrical penetrations, through
stress cracks, and on the exterior surface of the slab or behind stucco and
veneer coverings.
Basement
Termites can enter your business through voids in the foundation wall,
expansion joints where the floor meets the wall, around plumbing and
electrical penetrations, through stress cracks, and on the exterior surface
of the foundation or behind stucco and veneer coverings.
Conventional Foundation
Termites can invade your business through foundation voids, plumbing pipes
and pier supports; on the surfaces of the foundation walls (exterior and
interior); and through any wood-to-ground contacts
