Climax's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. A mix of older farmhouses and modest small-town homes, many on crawl spaces given the region's flat, high-water-table terrain. Combined with the local climate — a climate with real summer heat and humidity and winters mild enough that hard freezes are the exception — 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.
