Crawlspaces

Crawlspaces provide service access for plumbing, electrical, and heating and cooling systems, but they can have the perfect conditions to support termites.

Slabs

Termites can enter through a 1/32" crack which is approximately the thickness of a piece of paper. Along with pipe access points, slabs can crack due to settling that can allow entry points for termites.
