BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Officials with a half-dozen Birmingham-area pest control companies say they'd each had a few cases of Formosan subterranean termites dating to 2004. But this summer they report a total of at least a dozen incidences in which the pest has been found in or near homes or businesses, according to a story on Al.com.
All the reports in recent years have come from in or near the north Shelby County area bounded by U.S. 280, U.S. 31, Valleydale Road and Alabama 119.
Alabama is among at least 11 states where Formosan termites have been recorded, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
