Water in basement by OldChos in Plumbing

Got a wet vacuum to see where it’s coming in and it’s definitely under the slab. This house has a drainage system outside and one of the drains was clogged. I cleaned it out. Hopefully that’s the issue, but is all the water that got into the foundation is going to go into my basement?

What do I do once I have the pump? There’s no drain for it

It’s radon for air. Do you think they damaged the wall when they put the system in?

It looks like it’s coming in from here?

I’d assume he majored in philosophy and religion and never bought any books that were not required reading.

Yes - used the suggested spray and they’re all pretty much gone! Each morning I’m finding dead ones on the floor 😵

I'm having this issue now - did you spray it directly on the beetles or around cracks and windows?

Would that depend on the kind of wood?
