Termite Pretreatment For New Construction Is Required
Did you know that the Nevada Department of Agriculture requires soil pretreatment and termite inspections on new homes? Our highly trained and knowledgeable technicians are experienced with new construction termite treatment and are happy to satisfy these requirements for you.
What Are Subterranean Termites?
Subterranean termites nest in the soil. Unlike termite species that build their homes in trees, hills, or other types of wood, these insects build expansive tunnel systems beneath the ground on the hunt for food. This makes them harder to spot until property damage and infestation are already a problem.
Common types of subterranean termite damage:
- Door Frames
- Window Frames
- Wooden Skirts
- Wooden Floors
- Wall Paneling
- Wooden Furniture
- Wooden Roofing
- Cabinets & Cupboards
- Books & Boxes
- Electrical Wiring
How Termite Pretreatment Works
Termite pretreatment at Flatliners Pest Control combines soil treatment and slab treatment to form an unbroken barrier against subterranean termites.
- Soil Treatment: Before any concrete is poured, our licensed technicians trench and treat the soil with an EPA‑approved termiticide. This stops termites from tunneling up through the ground and entering your structure from below.
- Slab Treatment: Once the foundation is in place, but before framing begins, we apply a second, carefully metered treatment along slab edges, plumbing penetrations, and other wood‑to‑soil contact points. This seals off the last gaps termites use to invade, giving your new build comprehensive, code‑compliant protection.
Why Treat Before & During New Construction?
Soil and slab treatment forms a barrier from subterranean termites. This protects your home’s structure from infestation early on. By treating the ground for termites before and after your foundation is poured, you get termite prevention in areas that are no longer accessible after the home is built.
Benefits Of Termite Pretreatment
Investing in termite pretreatment delivers advantages that go far beyond simple pest control:
- Up‑Front Savings: Treating soil and slab during construction is significantly less expensive than post‑infestation fumigation and structural repairs.
- Code Compliance: Nevada requires termite pretreatment on new homes; our services satisfy all inspection and documentation mandates, keeping your project on schedule.
- Higher Resale Value: A documented termite pretreatment record reassures future buyers and appraisers that the property is protected against hidden damage.
- Peace Of Mind: Knowing your investment is shielded from the most destructive wood‑eating pests in the Southwest lets you focus on enjoying your new home instead of worrying about costly surprises down the line.
Choosing An Experienced Pretreatment Exterminator Is Critical
Your pretreatment exterminator will know where the most likely areas of infestation will be. They will also be able to treat areas with the proper type of pest control chemicals in the correct quantities. Exposed wood, foundation walls and piers, and concrete slabs may all require different termiticide treatments for optimal protection.
