How Termites Get Through Concrete Foundations

Homes in the greater Phoenix Valley are usually built with concrete slab foundations {newer foundations are usually solid concrete, and older foundations are not}. Residents often wonder HOW the heck Termites get through solid concrete foundations!

Subterranean Termites in Arizona SQUEEZE through TINY CRACKS in concrete foundations… Cracks as small as 1/32 of an inch!

Most Termites throughout the Phoenix/Mesa AZ Valley are the Subterranean species. They build tight, SMALL, “Mud Tubes” to travel from their underground colonies {often through concrete foundations} to they’re intended FOOD SOURCE… The wood products homes are built with.

Termites Enter Through:

• Concrete expansion joints.
• TINY foundation cracks.
• Gaps where plumbing comes through foundation.
