Dirt-filled porches provide a haven for termites to thrive. The main contributing factor being food (wood scraps and tree stumps). An analysis of data from Overland Park, KS collected on over 300 termite-infested homes by this author was an eye opener. The homes studied had basement foundations with visible access to the sill boxes benind the dirt-filled porches. Results showed that 80 % of the termites detected originated from within the porch, 10 % were detected inside and/or outside of the garage and the remaining 10 % came from the remaining parts of the structure.
