New construction and pests
Many Raeford subdivisions were built on land that used to be fields or woods. When the land is cleared, insects and rodents that lived there look for new shelter, often in the new homes. A barrier treatment around the foundation and sealing gaps in the first year can head off a lot of problems.
If you bought a new home, ask the builder whether a termite pre-treatment was done and how long the warranty lasts. Renewing that coverage before it lapses is usually cheaper than starting over.
Rural properties
Larger lots with outbuildings, livestock or woodpiles need more attention to rodents and stinging insects. Many companies offer plans that include sheds and barns as well as the house.
