WHAT IS A PRE-CONSTRUCTION TERMITE TREATMENTS 

If your building a home or business its important you protect your investment from the ravages of termites.  The Average termite colony can eat up to 3 feet of 2x4 per year.  This may not sound like much, but because termites are cryptobiotic, meaning they are excellent at hiding, termites may not be discovered for years or even decades.

So how do you prevent termites before they begin?  With a Pre-Construction Termite Treatment from Creed Pest Control.  Our treatment is applied directly to the wooden structures of the building during the rough-in phase of construction.  It absorbs completely into the wood and prevents termites from feeding or tubing across the treated wood.  The treatment is a green Boric Acid solution called Bora-Care that has proven to provide over 25 years of termite protection while keeping hundreds of gallons of pesticides out of the ground your
children and family play on.     

HOW DOES IT WORK?  

Picture
Termites forage 24 hours per day, 7 days a week it only makes sense that one day these hungry termites will find there way onto your property, and when they do your home or business will become their favorite meal. To prevent this we are able to apply a solution to your home or business when it is being built that prevents termites from ever feeding on your home.  Our certified applicators will treat all the sill plates all the wooden structures in the basement garage that come in contact with the ground up to 3 feet from the foundation.  This treatment creates a protective barrier stops termites in there tracks.  Even better the treatment has a proven effectiness of over   

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?  

When you consider the cost over the life time of the home, a bora-care treatment cost less then a penny per day.  The average home of 2000 Square feet cost about $559.00 to protect it from termites.  Compare that to the average cost of termite treatments and repairs in excess of $10,000 and you can see that a pre-construction termite treatment is a no brainer.  

MY BUILDER SAYS THEY ALREADY DO THIS?  

Creed Pest Control is one of the only authorized Bora-Care applicators in Story County, and in central Iowa.  If your builder says they do these treatments as them if it is a Bora-Care Treatment or a soil treatment.  If it is a soil treatment insist they call us to have the job done right with a Bora-Care treatment.  While soil treatments have been proven effective, they only last a few years as the earth naturally brakes down the chemicals used to prevent termites.  Additionally a proper soil treatment requires hundreds of gallons of chemicals be injected into the soil around your home and I would guess that is something you really don't want.  Our Bora-Care treatment is applied directly to the wooden structures of your home and protects it for up to 30 years!     

WHAT IF I HAVE A VA OR FHA NEW CONSTRUCTION HOME LOAN?  

Did you know that pre-construction termite treatments are required in order to get a new home loan through the VA of FHA?  Bora-Care is an authorized termite prevention treatment for both VA and FHA home loans and is the best option when considering the type of treatment you will select when building your new home.

​Sue K - Ames, IA  

" After calling around, multiple pest companies where either unavailable or not sure they could even get rid of the wasp nest we had. Creed Pest came by same evening, took care of it, then came back the following week to eradicate any remaining wasps."
