Coalinga's arid climate in the western San Joaquin Valley presents a unique challenge for homeowners. The extreme heat and limited outdoor water sources compel pests to aggressively seek cooler, moister conditions indoors. Consequently, residences in Coalinga frequently encounter infestations as pests invade for survival.
Cockroaches: The intense dryness in Coalinga drives cockroaches directly into homes. American and German cockroaches readily infiltrate kitchens and bathrooms, focusing on areas with leaky pipes or standing water. They also exploit neglected drains and sewage systems to gain access, breeding rapidly once they find suitable harborage.
Termites: Coalinga, like much of California, endures high termite pressure. Subterranean termites thrive in the region's soil, tunneling silently into homes and structures, eroding wood from the inside out. Drywood termites also infest exposed timbers, often requiring specialized treatments to eradicate entrenched colonies and prevent further destruction.
