Unfortunately I just found out the hard way. I've had my engineered Brazilian Cherry wood floor down less than 1 year after noticing some cupping in certain areas. I just removed a section today and discovered a termite infestation. The termites were attracted to the wood and ate through the floor pad to get at it. These are subterranean termites that got in through cracks in the foundation that I though I had sealed up. The wood buckled due to moisture from the termites mud tubes and being eaten by the termites. I'm now forced to remove all the wood and have the foundation treated for termites and the slab sealed before putting the wood back down. I live in the Orlando Fl area where apparently the risk of termite damage is high.
