Over the last couple years, several of the houses in my neighborhood have been tented for termites. It (obviously!) makes me pretty nervous, and I'm worried that I'll have to have my house treated too...if they're so close by, wouldn't it stand to reason that my house could be affected too?
Well, as it turns out, Florida is a termite's best friend. Four of the ten worst cities in the US for termite problems are here in the Sunshine State. Oh great. Here's the top ten list, according to Orkin...although, I think we should call it a BOTTOM ten, because UGH!
- Miami, FL
- Los Angeles, CA
- Tampa, FL
- New York, NY
- Atlanta, GA
- Washington, DC
- West Palm Beach, FL
- San Francisco, CA
- New Orleans, LA
- Orlando, FL
I'll just say it: I'm WAY more concerned about this than I am about coronavirus.
