Kapolei sits on a hot, dry leeward plain at the base of the Waianae Range, with newly developed land abutting open fields and fast-changing vegetation. Drywood Termites thrive in sound dry wood — attic rafters, eaves, door frames, wooden furniture, and any unpainted or weathered wood above ground, which is exactly what Kapolei offers — new construction disturbs pest habitat into nearby neighborhoods, commercial density drives cockroach and rodent pressure, and the expanding urban/wild edge pushes wildlife and feral chickens into yards.
