Cisco's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. Crawl-space and slab construction is common here, built for the region's humid climate rather than deep winter cold. Combined with the local climate — a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and mild winters, typical of the Piedmont, cooler in the mountains to the north — 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.
