Getting termite inspections at least once a year is important to ensure your home is protected from termite damage. Not only can termites be difficult to find, but the structural damage they can cause is also severe. Some homeowners only notice the damage once they rearrange furniture or once costly repairs are already needed.
The most common signs of a termite infestation are mud tunnels and damage to wood. Once you notice these signs the termites could virtually be anywhere. The mud tunnels can often be hard to find as they are hidden (for example, behind a cupboard, under the sink or carpet).
Ridding your home of an infestation is certainly not a simple process. Before treatment, it is important for the pest control professional to identify the species of termite, the number of leads and which places to treat before selecting the treatment that will offer the best results. The process duration depends on many factors including the:
• Size of the colony.
• Time of year.
• Type of treatment being used.
It roughly takes around two or three months for results from significant infestations. The sooner we discover and treat the problem, the less damage there will be for you to repair and the shorter the treatment process will be. This is why regular inspections are essential. Prevention is key.
We pride ourselves on offering a range of treatment methods to suit our client’s circumstances.
