Brick homes usually have brick down to the ground or below ground level. Behind the brick is a 1" inch gap known as a weep gap. This is there to allow moisture toescape from behind the wall. The problem is, if termites find a tiny crack in the mortar around the brick & get into this weep gap area they go undetected.

Once a colony is established, termites are a year-round problem. However, there is an increase in colony expansion activity during warm weather.

Generally, skin problems are minor, but check with a coach before or after practice if you have any concerns about a rash or spots that your child may have on their arms, legs, or neck.

Take a look at the Campsite Safety Page for more information.

Do not attempt to interact with the reptile or harrass it in anyway. South Carolina laws strictly prohibit the harrassmant/feeding of these creatures.

Nashville tap water usually ranges from soft to medium hard., This is ACCEPTABLE for MOST freshwater fish and plant species.

Termites are small insects that are capable of eating and digesting wood and wood products. Termites are very beneficial in Nature. These insects are part of God's recycling program for dead wood. A dead tree in the woods becomes new organic material in the soil thanks to termites.
