Yes, the house can be successfully treated, but this must be an ongoing preventive approach. My house had termites so I bought a protection plan. After the initial treatment, technicians check my house regularly and reapply treatments when necessary. Some parts of the US are excessively prone to termite infestation. Termites like high humidity and warm weather. There are many reliable commercial companies. Have the house inspected and get an estimate on what it will cost to have the problem abated and then to provide ongoing follow up services.
