What You Need To Know About Termites

Termites invade homes by travelling from their colonies in trails to the foundations of your property. Cracks or gaps around pipes, in the mortor are often the point of access for termite entry. Homeowners can also get termites from:

  • Wooden structures, like porches and decks, in direct contact with the ground
  • Stacks of firewood that lean against the house
  • Damp soil near foundations from leaking faucets, gutters, or downspouts
  • Trees and shrubs planted close to the building.
Above ground locations in the house that remain damp enough to support termites without them needing to return to the moist conditions found in the soil.

Some indications you may have a termite infestation:

  • A temporary swarm of winged insects in your home or from the soil around your home.

Regular termite inspections from a qualified professional is the number one recommendation, but here are some other simple steps to make sure your home is a less attractive target for termites:
  • Eliminate moisture problems within your home (leaking faucets, keep gutters clean, seal entry points around water & utility lines or pipes).
  • Remove termite food sources (firewood, stumps & debris, check fences & decks regularly).

What We Do

Termite inspections

Evidence of termites rarely becomes visible to the home owner until significant and costly damage has already occurred. Our experienced technicians are expertly trained at inspecting the internals and externals of your property for signs of termites. We use Termatrac, borescopes and moisture detectors, along with other techniques to search for termites at your property.

Our service provides you with a fully detailed report including pictures, listing any damage identified, recommended treatment and prevention plans.

Termite Treatments

If you’ve located active termites it is very important not to disturb them in any form. We recommend a full inspection of your property to confirm if any other activity may be present.

The method of treatment can vary dependent on the location of the termites, the methods used to treat the termites could be either by use of a Termiticide liquid, foaming agent or a dust. After the affected areas have been treated we will conduct a follow up inspection on the treated areas to confirm that the desired result was achieved.

Termite Prevention

Chemical Barrier
The property/building can be protected against concealed termite entry by installing a chemical barrier using an approved Termiticide. For existing homes a chemical barrier has to be installed manually . This involves digging a trench around the external perimeter of the property.

Termite Baiting
This requires installing a baiting system around the external areas of your property. The maintenance of the baits would require the property owner to commit to a program of monitoring the baits on a frequent schedule.
