How do I get rid of termites in my house?

Question: How do I get rid of termites in my house?

Answer: Getting rid of termites is not something to be tried on your own or without at least getting advice and recommendations from a PMP. Since the house is almost always the most valuable asset you own, it makes sense to turn termite control over to an experienced, termite professional who has the knowledge and experience to rid your home of these destructive, wood eating insects and set up a long-range termite control plan that will be effective well into the future.

One very important thing a homeowner can do is listen to and follow advice regarding ways they can make their house less attractive to termites.
