When treating a property for termites with a well located within the foundation walls, what is the recommended treatment area?

The recommended treatment area in the case of a property with a well located within the foundation walls is focused on the exterior only. This approach is taken because the exterior treatment targets the soil surrounding the foundation where termites are likely to enter the structure. By focusing on this zone, it helps to prevent any potential infestation from the outside.

Treating the interior may not be as effective for establishing a barrier since termites usually travel through the soil outside the structure before entering. The interior treatment could address existing infestations but does not create a preventative measure against new ones coming from the exterior.

While addressing the whole property might seem thorough, it is impractical and often unnecessary. Treatment should be strategic and focused on areas where termite activity is most likely to occur, especially around the foundation and the well area, which could provide easier access for termites if left untreated.
