Cambria’s unique coastal climate, characterized by mild temperatures and frequent fog, creates a perpetually moist environment that attracts specific pests. These conditions drive insects and rodents to seek dry, stable shelter indoors.
Cockroaches: The moist coastal air in Cambria attracts Oriental and American cockroaches, which thrive in damp environments. They infiltrate homes through foundation cracks and poorly sealed drains, congregating in basements, crawl spaces, and under sinks.
Termites: Cambria experiences a moderate termite risk. Subterranean termites thrive in the damp soil, attacking wooden structures from below, while dampwood termites, unique to moist coastal regions, can infest wet or decaying wood.
