Pest Control Inspection CT: April showers bring May flowers… Well, the warmth of spring in CT also invites ants and other pests into your home, business, and yard. Which pests should you watch for? Be on the lookout for termites, ants, carpetner bees, carpenter ants etc. What can you do? Keep soil away from wood and siding to reduce pest access. If there must be wood to soil contact (on a porch or deck) use pressure-treated wood or material that is pest and insect resistant Eliminate damp conditions, increase ventilation and replace decayed wood to manage carpenter ant issues and help prevent future infestations in your CT property. Focus especially on cellars, crawl spaces and under dirt-filled porches.

Damaged wood is obviously a dead giveaway, but there are other indicators that might signal a problem. Any issues will need to be cleared up before you can move forward with your VA home loan. Along with current damage, the pest control inspection will report if the home owner has had any prior termite or pest treatments. Some states actually require that the seller discloses whatever measures they took to get rid of the termites. When the VA pest control inspection finds that the home is infested, or still has significant evidence of a previous infestation, it will usually recommend that the home owner treat the home to exterminate the pests. The seller is required to pay for a VA pest control inspection, but anyone can pay for repairs if they’re needed. So, the cost for treating a home for termites is a negotiable item that you’ll...
