Pre-Construction Termite Control
With our pre-construction termite prevention and control system, your new home is protected in several ways. Before the slab is poured, the soil of the home site is treated with a termiticide. This is proactive protection against subterranean termites. When the home's wood framing is up, the wood is sprayed with liquid termite control and wood preservative. The spray contains a termiticide and a wood penetrant. The wood penetrant takes the termiticide into the wood grain of the structure's framing. When a termite eats the treated wood, the termite dies.
Termites
Termites are small, soft-bodied, social insects that eat wood. Termites cause over $250 million in damage annually in the United States alone. Termites primarily feed on dead plant material, generally in the form of wood or plant matter. They can also eat through paper, cardboard, and cellulose-based construction materials. These insects live in large colonies that may have several thousand members at any given time. Termites cause severe structural damage to buildings by eating away at the wood that makes up their structure. The most common type of termites in our area are subterranean termites.
