Termites typically get into the home from the outside by finding easy points of access in or around the foundation. Since they attack wood from the inside out, by the time the damage is visible, it’s often too late to repair it without pulling out the wood and rebuilding. To protect the investment you’ve already made in your home, it’s important to schedule regular inspections with Los Angeles exterminators who know what to look for. Trained experts can tell if infestation has already occurred, and can point out areas that could be potentially attractive to termites and other pests. Having regular inspections is the best way to stop infestation and to prevent new pests from entering your home.
