Sydney Properties
No one likes to discover an infestation of unwelcome guests on their property, whether it involves termites, rodents, wasps, ants, ticks, bed bugs, spiders, cockroaches or fleas, or worse still – several species competing for space! While the occasional fly can be swatted or sprayed with insecticide, a serious infestation is another matter. For the best termite and pest controlon your property you require the skills of a professional pest controller!
Get regular termite inspections done
Termites in particular have the capacity to cause wide structural damage. While they do not bite or sting like some other pests, the damage to property from termites can be horrendous. To make matters worse, there is no home insurance cover available for termite damage!
Evidence of termite activity includes holes or ‘honeycomb’ effect in timbers, blistering paint, bubbling effect in Gyprock, and mud tunnels in your grounds outside. However it requires the expertise of a professional pest controller to determine the extent of the damage, and the most appropriate treatments to deal with the infestation. For this reason it is recommended that
Sydney property owners get termite inspections done every six to twelve months as a preventive measure.
Termite eradication treatments
If termite activity is found on your property, the pest controller should then determine the best method of eradication. This may involve the use of a chemical barrier, bait stations, physical barriers, direct destruction of the nest, or a combination of treatments. Depending on the extent of the infestation, this could cost up to $4,000, but if it prevents further damage to your property it could be looked upon as a form on insurance.
In addition, if regular inspections are carried out and the problem detected early, you could end up saving a lot of money on home repairs, especially since major infestations can cause major structural damage to a building. This really is one instance when prevention is truly way better than cure!
