Termite Treatment in Chula Vista, CA.
Termite Treatment for Chula Vista 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 South County San Diego?
Older central Chula Vista and National City homes see significant drywood termite pressure, and we regularly find multi-area activity that requires fumigation rather than local treatment. Newer Eastlake and Otay Ranch homes see subterranean issues more commonly — different treatment, different cost structure.
