Termite Treatment in La Presa, CA.
Termite Treatment for La Presa homes, done by one pest-control start to finish. San Diego County is home to both drywood termites (which live entirely inside wood — common in older coastal homes) and subterranean termites (which travel up from the soil, especially in irrigated yards). Each requires a different treatment approach, and the wrong protocol wastes money.
Why is termite treatment different in East County San Diego?
El Cajon, La Mesa, and Santee see heavier subterranean termite pressure than coastal zones because of the warmer, drier soils that drive termites to search more aggressively for moisture. We do a lot of trenching and soil treatment in this zone, especially along foundations adjacent to irrigated planters.
