Creating A Positive Environment

A new home purchase is an exciting new adventure. Even if the papers have all been signed and the last brick has been laid, there are still steps you should take to protect your home before moving in. Although termites may not be something you first think of when it comes to a new home, they are always a possibility that should be taken seriously. Here are three reasons why you should do preventative termite control treatment on your new home. 

Your neighbors could have termites

Though the house that you just bought or built may not have a bug in sight, it is always possible that your neighbors could have termites. If termites are in your immediate area, there is a chance that your home could become affected in the future. Rather than waiting around to see a pest control at your neighbor's house, take action before you move into your new home and have a termite control service come out to perform a preventative treatment on the full grounds of your home.

Before moving in is the perfect time for all preventative services

Prior to moving into your home is a fantastic time to take care of any future issues. That way you will not have to disrupt your life in order to calm and issue in the future. Before you have any furniture delivered to any home, you should have a local pest control service come to perform an inspection and treat your home. The inspection will tell you if there are any issues with pests in your home and also any weaknesses, such as water features or holes in your home, that can cause pests to be a problem. Pest control and termite prevention will save you the headache of uncomfortable living conditions in your new home. 

Looking for termites may find leaks

One of the home features that termites are attracted to is wet wood. If there are any leaks in your current pipes or in your home's structure, a termite analysis may be able to find these though a plumber did not. If you do find any leaks in your home, these should be repaired before moving in to preserve your home's structure and to keep the place safe from termites that may be looking for a mess. Having a termite control company searching for areas where termites may get into the home will help you double down on making sure that your investment in your new home is one that is safe and in good shape from plumbing to structure.
