My wife did that years ago on our house, and southern temites moved in. Luckily we caught them early before they could spread and do any damage. <br />After digging out the dirt, you may want to re-treat along that side of your slab before laying down pares, or pouring more concrete. You can do it yourself for far less than a pest control company would charge.Termitenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-36937279524984552712014-07-11T20:39:18.998-05:002014-07-11T20:39:18.998-05:00That it will...

However now my front lawn looks decent so the neighbors will be happier. The mower was down for awhile so it got long. <br /><br />You and the family will love that patio in the winter. Set up a little fire pit, a smoker plus maybe a table and it'll be the focal point for many a great event. Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612373437033635765noreply@blogger.com
