“Mold in Your Crawl Space? How It Leads to a Full-Blown Pest Infestation”

Your crawl space might be hiding a serious mold problem—and where there’s mold, pests are sure to follow. Excess moisture creates the perfect environment for mold growth, attracting insects, rodents, and even larger pests like snakes and possums.

The Crawl Space Pest Chain Reaction

  1. Moisture creates crawl space mold.
  2. Mold attracts cockroaches and crickets.
  3. Mice hunt the insects and nest in insulation.
  4. Snakes move in to hunt the mice.
  5. Possums, in extreme cases, nest and destroy everything.

Why Crawl Space Encapsulation Stops Pest Problems

By sealing and dehumidifying your crawl space, you remove the conditions that allow mold and pest infestations to thrive. No moisture means no mold, no bugs, no mice, and ultimately, no snakes or possums.

This home had hot water pipe leak and made the crawl a sauna soaking all the insulation. When insulation is wet and snakes still hunt mice in insulation...this is what it looks like as the insulation gets stuck to them as they pick around the insulation.
