Termite Control in Homestead, Maricopa AZ

Termite Risk in Homestead

Homestead is one of Maricopa's newer residential developments, with homes built primarily in the 2010s. Many homeowners in newer communities assume that their home is protected because it is relatively new — but this assumption can be costly. The liquid termiticide applied to the soil before your slab was poured is effective for 5–10 years. If your home was built in 2010–2015, that treatment may have already expired or will expire soon.

The Desert Subterranean Termite is present throughout Maricopa's soil, regardless of whether a home is new or old. These termites are constantly foraging for food and moisture, and they will find any gap in your home's protection. Every monsoon season, new termite colonies are established throughout Maricopa. Even if your home was protected when it was built, new colonies established nearby can reach your home as their foraging territory expands.

Homestead's desert landscaping and irrigation systems create the moisture conditions that subterranean termites need to thrive. The community's parks and common areas are irrigated year-round, creating moisture zones throughout the neighborhood. Homes adjacent to parks and green spaces should be inspected annually.

Homestead homeowners should check their home's closing documents or contact their builder to determine the type and date of their original pre-construction treatment. If it has been more than 7 years since construction, schedule an inspection with Pest Control Bros. Our free inspections cover all accessible areas of the home and provide a detailed assessment of your termite risk and protection status.
