What should be included in postconstruction treatment of a crawl space?

In postconstruction treatment of a crawl space, treating the foundation around the piers is essential for addressing potential vulnerabilities that could lead to pest infestations or structural damage. The foundation supports the structure and is a critical point where wood-destroying pests, such as termites, may enter and establish colonies. By treating this area, especially around piers where wood may come into contact with soil, you can create a protective barrier that helps prevent pests from accessing vital components of the building.

Addressing the foundation in this manner is a proactive measure that enhances the overall integrity of the crawl space and contributes to long-term pest management strategies.
