Where do subterranean termites live?
Just as their name suggests, common Florida ground termites live underground. In order to move from the ground to your home, these termites will build clay tubes that protect them from the elements and provide the moisture they need as they make their way into your home. Ground termites live in huge colonies of millions of termites, each working hard to destroy your home.




At what time of the year are termites active?
Although termites can be active year-round, subterranean and other subspecies will breed in warm, humid spring weather.
