Germantown's historic homes are full of original wood and settled stone, exactly what termites, carpenter ants, and rodents look for.
Historic wood framing
Original timber and wood framed construction gives termites and carpenter ants the wood they target.
Settled stone foundations
Old stone and mortar leave the gaps rodents and insects use to get in.
Damp basements and wood
Aging homes hold moisture that draws termites, ants, and roaches.
Large homes split into units
Big old houses divided into apartments give pests more paths between spaces.
