Steve Murphree is in search of homes with active termite infestations to include in his Sentricon termite colony elimination system enhancement research for the next 12-18 months. Active homes are those that have experienced swarms in recent months. Steve would prefer that the homes be in Nashville, Franklin or Murfreesboro and that the homeowner(s) not have a current termite contract with a pest control company. The termite control would be free and homeowner(s) would be required to sign a confidentiality and release form. Contact Steve at ext. 6221 or murphrees@mail.belmont.edu.
