## What do you think? Question:

This question is submitted by Michelle M. out of San Diego, Ca

| found termite swarm in my third floor bathroom condo two days ago. This should be the dry wood termite. I can see some termite coming from the air vent in the bathroom. I contacted our HOA for help. I got a message saying since the termites are in the condo. They are unsure who is responsible for fixing the problem. Am I responsible for the termite problem in my condo?    Thoughts? |
