Questions for your builder
Ask whether the foundation was pretreated for termites, which product was used, whether any termite warranty transfers to you, and when it expires. Alabama Extension says current soil termiticides generally last about 5 years, so knowing the date helps you plan the next step.
Landscaping and termites
New landscaping is one of the easiest places to make a termite mistake. Alabama Extension links termite risk to mulch, plants or gardens within 12 inches of the foundation, wood touching soil, and siding or foam insulation that extends below grade. Keep beds pulled back from the house, aim irrigation away from the foundation and don't stack firewood against walls. These steps also cut down on ants and roaches near entry points.
