Addressing Pest Concerns with New Home Construction

Addressing Pest Concerns with New Home Construction

Building a new home is an exciting time, but pest control is often overlooked during the construction process. Without preventive measures, homes in Central and North Florida may quickly become targets for termites, ants, and rodents. Proactively managing pest risks during construction can save homeowners from costly infestations later.

Common Pests in Newly Built Homes


Construction sites attract pests by disturbing soil and vegetation, drawing insects like termites and ants. Gaps in foundations, unfinished walls, and exposed wood provide easy entry points for pests. Additionally, the presence of construction materials can invite rodents to nest, especially if food waste is left behind.


Pest Control Strategies for New Homes


Working with pest control professionals during the construction phase can make a big difference. Soil treatments can prevent termite infestations before they start, while sealing foundation gaps and installing mesh screens on vents keep out insects and rodents. Using pest-resistant building materials, such as treated wood, further enhances protection.


Building a home is an investment, and pest control should be part of the plan from day one. Superior Spray offers pre-construction pest services throughout Central and North Florida to ensure your home is protected from the ground up.
