Termites problem

[Andy]

Hi, I live in the bay area and recently discovered termites under our triple- wide MH. Is there any effective ways we can take care of this problem ourself to save some money? Thanks in advance for any advice

You didn't say where you found termites. If they are in debris under the home you can probably clean out any plant/wood material and be comfortable. If you found them in or near floor joists or other structural members you will probably need a pest control company. The stuff they use is not available to the home-owner and requires a special license to use it. Hardware and Building Supply stores carry a product called "Terminix" which is a reasonably good surface treatment.
