Big Creek's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. Housing spans historic farming-community homes to newer development tied to the region's wine-tourism growth. Combined with the local climate — a climate ideal for wine grapes, with cool coastal influence and dry summers — soil-to-wood contact points around the foundation are the most common entry route.
We start with a full inspection of the foundation, crawl space, and any wood-to-soil contact points, looking for mud tubes, damaged wood, or swarmer activity. Treatment options include soil treatment around the foundation perimeter or bait-station monitoring systems that intercept foraging termites before they reach the structure. Every job includes a wood-destroying-insect inspection report.
