New Construction Treatment In Boerne, TX
Take Care Of New Construction Treatments With Covenant Pest Control
When you're building new constructions in the Boerne area, termite prevention treatments are an essential part of the process. The last thing you want is for your custom dream home or the new homes and businesses your company builds to be eaten from the inside by termites right after you complete them. Of course, it won't really happen immediately, but termites are sneaky pests, and they can invade new constructions a lot faster and easier than you might think. This is why new construction treatments are so vital.
What's more, Texas law mandates that all new construction made of wood have preventive anti-termite measures incorporated into or beneath the structure. This means that not only are preventive termite treatments necessary to protect the wooden structures you build, but they can also be vital to ensuring you are up to code.
The good news is that Covenant Pest Control offers some of the best termite control around. Our preventive treatments won't just get you up to code, but they will protect your custom home or your reputation as a builder by making new constructions much more difficult for termites to invade.
Termites are no joke. They do massive amounts of damage throughout the state of Texas, with our warm and humid environment doing little to slow them down. You might think that it is already difficult for termites to invade new construction, and you would be partially right. It is harder for most termite species to invade new hardwood than it is for them to invade aging and damaged hardwood. However, many termite species, especially drywood termites, find new wood little more than an inconvenience, and they can easily colonize it anyway. This is why preventive treatments are so vital.
Here at Covenant Pest Control, our termite prevention methods are designed to protect your new construction from the many different kinds of termites that just love to invade Texas homes. We can make sure that all of your Boerne construction projects are built to repel termite intrusion.
Why Choose Covenant Pest Control?
Our New Construction Treatment Process
We don’t do traditional sub-slab pesticide treatments because they only last a year in the soil and then leave your new construction without a termite barrier after that. Our termite protection methods are designed to be far superior. The first thing we do to treat your new construction is insert a wood bore termiticide treatment every three to five feet. We also hit plumbing penetrations and other hot spot areas that termites use to invade constructions.
We can perform fill treatments as well. This is where we treat all lumber from the roof to the slab. Our prophylactic termiticide comes with a five-year warranty and is meant to last with your new structure. These treatments don’t just prevent subterranean termites from invading your new construction; they also help ward off drywood termites and carpenter ants. After five years, you can choose to extend your termite warranty if you still own your new construction. The new termite bond will go year-to-year.

What do cockroaches eat?
Cockroaches feed on both plants and animals. They will feast on almost anything but especially like sugary foods, grease and fat, starches, and meat products.
They will even eat glue, book bindings, and human hair.
Cockroaches are attracted to decaying plants, rotting trash, compost piles, dog droppings, and cat litter. These unwanted pests are known as the sanitation workers of the animal kingdom. The worse something smells, the more attracted the cockroaches are.
Keeping your home and yard clear of debris and utilizing pest control will help eliminate these pesky critters.

Lifecycle of a Cockroach
Cockroaches go through 3 stages of life: egg, nymph, and adult. Females produce one egg sac each month for ten months. Each sac contains on average 16 eggs. The female cockroach will carry an egg case for several days and will then place it in a safe, damp place.
On average cockroaches live 6 to 15 months depending on the species, moisture, and temperature.
