Termites

Termite is the common name of a group of insects that live in communities like ants do. They have been known as white ants however termites are like ants only in their habits of living together. Termites are more closely related to cockroaches.

Termites can cause damage to timber structures such as fences, retaining walls and houses. Regular inspections are essential as the first step in management to limit damage caused.

A termite inspection is a thorough visual inspection of the yard, sub-floor, roof space, internal and externals areas of home.

A termite inspection is designed to:

• Detect old damage and weather active termites are present

• Give you an idea of risk of infestation to your property

• Give you tips on reducing the chances of termite infestation such as removing waste timber from near and around your home, repairing leaking plumbing and diverting air conditioner overflows away from home.

• and importantly educate you about termites.
