Termites in soil
Hey guys was planting some stuff today and grabbed a pot from last year and the old dirt in the pot is full of termites. Should I call the bug people ASAP to check my house or have others seen this before and not worried. Thanks

Re: Termites in soil
Have them come out and assess your situation its usually free.
I have them in the yard also, as close as 10 feet to the house. I keep them at bay with a foundation pesticide barrier and bait stakes. Now that you know they are there you have to be vigilant. If you are a do it yourself kind of guy....you can purchase the supplies from your Terminix supplier or other pest control agent. Terminix® Nags Head, NC Pest Control | 1-855-484-8944 There is great detailed information on Youtube. |
