If found, destroy the tube, look for a water source and spray with the baddest insecticide you can find. <br /><br />Slabs can hide the path of termites. They may be infiltrating through cracks, but they still require water. Make sure you have no drips, saturate the perimeter with insecticide and keep an eye out for the critters in the house. If found, it usually requires professionals.
