Munith's housing stock is part of what determines termite risk. Housing here ranges from historic furniture-industry-era homes in Grand Rapids to rustic cabins and rural housing in the north and Upper Peninsula. Combined with the local climate — a climate shaped by proximity to Lake Michigan and, farther north, genuinely severe Upper Peninsula winters — 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.
