What we see here
Old homes by the water
San Pedro is one of the older parts of Los Angeles, with many wood-framed homes from the early and mid twentieth century climbing the hills above the port. Coastal Southern California has the highest drywood termite prevalence in the continental US, and these homes have had decades of exposure in attics, eaves and window frames. The marine layer keeps garages and planted beds damp, which suits earwigs, silverfish and carpenter ants.
The working port and its warehouses support rodent populations that spread into nearby neighborhoods, and roof rats use mature trees and utility lines to reach rooflines. Toward Point Fermin and the Palos Verdes Peninsula, hillside streets see raccoons, opossums, skunks and ground squirrels from the open slopes.

Local pressure
Termites first, then the structure
For San Pedro's older homes, an annual termite inspection is the single most valuable habit, since drywood colonies caught early stay a spot treatment rather than a tenting job. Sealing keeps port-area rodents and hillside wildlife outside, and moisture fixes in beds and garages cut the coastal pests.
