Termite Inspection Lemon Tree Passage
Termites pose a significant risk to people’s homes because most homes use timber to form the supporting structure the building. But even for metal framed homes, termites can still get in and damage flooring and architraves. Having a professional termite inspection every year is a necessary step in minimising the risk termite of a termite attack. During a professional termite inspection our inspector will thoroughly check the property, looking for any indication that termites may have gained access. The inspection report will include photographs of the property and will note the findings. A number of recommendations will be made about how to further reduce the risk of termite attack, which will be explained with clear, actionable steps.
Termite Treatment Lemon Tree Passage
Keeping termites out of a home is not an easy task, as termites are by their very nature secretive, subterranean insects. When they gain access to a property, it is typically via the subfloor or through cracks or joins in the concrete slab – places that are dark and out of sight. The best way to minimise the possibility of termite entry is to have a termite treatment. The two most common termite treatments use a baiting/monitoring system or a soil treatment. With a baiting system, locked bait stations are placed at regular intervals around the property, which are discovered by foraging termites. With a soil treatment, a liquid termiticide is mixed into the soil around the property. Having a termite treatment is the most effective way to safeguard your investment against termite attack. With termites capable of causing significant damage to a home in just a few months, a termite treatment offers peace of mind.
Lemon Tree Passage – Key Pests
Lemon Tree Passage has a temperate climate, with pleasant warm summers and winters that rarely see temperatures in the single digits. This kind of climate, where temperatures are moderate and rainfall is good, is ideal for many pests to thrive. Although mild, winters are still the time rodents come inside looking for shelter, and they will happily nest in a cosy spot in the subfloor or attic (in the case of roof rats, which are excellent climbers). As the temperature increases in the springtime, spiders, ants and cockroaches become active, with populations at their highest during the warm summer months. Termites are different to other pests in that they cause financial damage to your property – they work tirelessly, year round, searching for need food sources and expanding their nests. Termites are the number one pest of concern for homeowners in Lemon Tree Passage.
