Termites Pest Control Sydney

Termites are a serious problem in Sydney and across most of Australia.  Termite damage in Sydney is not covered by insurance and often the damage cause by the termites is not know until it is far too late. It is recommended that termite inspections be undertaken  by a licensed and certified pest controller. This will ensure your premises are protected.

Termites eat anything made from wood. Steel frame homes are not immune to termite attack. The termites will get into roof trusses, architraves and furniture and get there by looking for food. They travel from a nest through the ground and could be hundreds of metres away. Termites build mud tunnels and get through cracks in your home as thin as a piece of paper.

If you suspect you have termites:

You may have recently seen a swarm of flying ants with wings or insects.  The flying termites are dispersed into the air and break up to start new colonies/nests.

Depending on the species termites need food and termites will find a dark place usually your home structure and immediately get to work.  Some simple observation of your property is to look out for mud-like trails on the skirting boards, door and window jambs, wardrobes, roof void, brickwork, rendered walls.

Termites are attacking many new homes where there is building works and trees have been removed the termites no longer have a home and the termites will move on usually into the closest residential home it takes a while before the termite damage is found by the owner, these homes are usually well established and the termite protection or treatment may no longer be effective.   

IMPORTANT:

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISTURB, BREAK OPEN, CLEAN UP OR REMOVE THE TERMITE MUD TRAILS.

By disturbing the colony you are at risk of the termites breaking up and starting to rebuild their nest in another part of your property which you won’t discover until it could be too late.
