A Smart First Step After Buying a Home
When you move into a new home, there are many things to check: utilities, locks, HVAC, plumbing, insurance, and repairs. Pest control should be on that list too.
Even if a home looks clean and well maintained, pests can hide in crawl spaces, garages, basements, walls, cabinets, exterior entry points, landscaping, and storage areas. A new homeowner pest service gives you a better understanding of what may be happening and helps you start with a cleaner pest prevention plan.
What We Look For
Common Pest Concerns in a New Home
A new homeowner service may help identify or address issues such as:
- Ant activity
- Spider or brown recluse concerns
- Roach activity
- Mice or rat activity
- Termite warning signs
- Fleas from previous pets
- Wasps or hornets around the exterior
- Crawl space concerns
- Seasonal invaders
- Entry points and exterior pest pressure
This service is especially helpful if the home has been vacant, recently remodeled, heavily landscaped, located near wooded areas, or has a crawl space.
Crawl Spaces
Crawl Spaces Can Hide Pest Problems
Crawl spaces can create conditions that attract or shelter pests. Moisture, darkness, access gaps, and limited visibility can allow pest issues to go unnoticed.
When needed, Kammermann’s Pest Control provides crawl space service when it is scheduled in conjunction with another pest control service. Although attic work is not included, examining and treating accessible crawl-space areas can be an important part of addressing pest activity throughout the home.
Start with Prevention
Begin Homeownership with a Pest Plan
A new homeowner service can help you understand current pest activity, what should be treated now, and whether recurring service is recommended. This is also a good time to ask about termite protection, rodent prevention, seasonal pest control, and service plan options.
