Termites are destructive wood-damaging pests found throughout Oregon, especially in areas where moisture, aging wood, and soil contact create favorable conditions for infestation. These silent invaders often remain hidden inside walls, crawl spaces, foundations, and structural wood, causing damage long before homeowners notice visible warning signs.

Termites are attracted to moisture, untreated wood, leaking plumbing, wood-to-soil contact, and damp crawl spaces. Oregon’s wet climate can increase the likelihood of conditions that support termite activity around homes.
Effective termite control often involves professional inspection and targeted treatment methods designed to eliminate active colonies and protect vulnerable areas. Reducing moisture and correcting structural risk factors also helps limit future infestations.
Termites commonly live underground or inside wooden structures where moisture is present. They are often found in crawl spaces, wall voids, foundations, support beams, fences, and wood landscaping materials.
Yes. Subterranean termites can cause costly structural damage if left untreated. Because termite activity often remains hidden for long periods, infestations may continue spreading before homeowners notice visible signs.
Termite activity in Oregon can occur year-round indoors, but swarming activity is often more noticeable during spring and early summer when temperatures and moisture levels increase.
