Houses built over crawl spaces can indeed be more prone to pest and insect activity if the foundation is not properly sealed and encapsulated. Because crawl spaces are dark, humid, and close to open soil, they provide ideal nesting environments for termites, ants, cockroaches, spiders, and rodents. Installing a heavy-duty continuous vapor barrier, sealing foundation vents, and applying perimeter pest control significantly reduces pest vulnerability.
