Pre moving construction treatment

Benefits of Pest Control Treatment before Moving In/Construction

For most people, the aspect of buying/ moving into a new home signifies a new beginning. But many would not know if the land where the property is built upon has been a home to pest. A research conducted, states that houses built on land previously rubber tree and oil palm plantations were one of the major reasons for termite invasion.

That is why, it is highly recommended for property developers to treat the land before construction, and for homeowners to do a pre-moving pest control treatment. Although termites are not really a disease carrying pest, they do pack a punch to the structural integrity of your building or value of your home when they infest.

3 reasons to have a Termite Monitoring plan:

• You can act quickly and get a pest controller to stop further infestation when termite activity is spotted early on, thus saving you cost
• Termites are very smart at evading thus it is difficult to spot them without specialised training. A trained pest control professional will ensure that the termite monitoring stations are placed at high risk spots
• We have knowledge of termite species behaviour that infest your area, thus able to deploy the right treatment if needed

Although do-it-yourself (DIY) termite treatments are not encouraged because it can be ineffective and may end up spreading an infestation to other areas of your property, you can still do DIY termite monitoring and have an annual comprehensive termite inspection.

Having a fulfilling and rewarding place to stay is another matter if there is pest presence even before moving in. So, instead of fretting over it, you can always schedule a free site inspection and also a pre-moving pest control treatment to flush pest out from your home/ premises.

Why schedule a pest control treatment before moving in?
