Our key pest control services in Lambton
One of our most popular treatments is a “spider spray“, which we usually carry out during the warmer months. This is a general pest treatment that protects against spiders and other crawling pests, such as cockroaches. During the winter we are often called out to deal with rodent problems.
However, termites are the top priority; keeping them out of a home means having an inspection at least once a year and installing a termite management system. Many customers like to book their annual termite inspection at the same time as a general pest treatment to save time and cost.
Termite Inspections Lambton
Termites spend most of their time building tunnels in the soil, which is why they are so difficult to detect. Having your home inspected for termite activity by a professional termite inspector is an essential part step towards keeping them out. If termites enter a property (usually via the subfloor or somewhere out of sight) they can cause significant damage in just a few months.
During an inspection, one of our professional termite inspectors will carefully examine the property looking for signs of termite activity, noting any areas where termites might gain easy access. Recommendations will be given and the findings will be clearly explained. If termites are detected, the infestation can be controlled in a number of ways. We guarantee elimination of termites from the building and a termite management system will provide long term termite protection.
Termite Treatments Lambton
To protect a home against termites, the answer is to install a termite protection system. Choosing the right one depends on a number of factors, including location, construction type of the home, whether the home is subject to flooding, on a hill, etc.
The two most common types of termite protection system are soil treatments and bait systems. With soil treatments, the termiticide is applied to the soil around the property, forming a ‘barrier’ that termites cannot cross without being effected – they are either repelled or killed, depending on the type of product used. With bait systems, termiticide rods are placed in the ground at regular intervals around the property. Regular inspections will pick up activity and the termite bait will kill the colony feeding on it.
As termite damage is not covered by standard home insurance policies, it pays to have a termite protection system in place.

Lambton – Key Pests
Due to the damage they can inflict on a structure, termites should always be regarded as the top pest of concern for homeowners. But there are plenty of other pests in the Lambton area!
Due to the mild climate, ants, cockroaches and spiders can appear indoors almost year round. Having a property “sprayed for spiders” will greatly reduce the presence of these particular pests. Nest-building pests such as European wasps and bees can also be a problem. Wasps are known for being particularly aggressive and their nests difficult to locate. Professional, safe nest removal is a service we happily provide to keep families and pets safe.
Of course, it’s not only homeowners who suffer pest problems; we work with a number of schools, cafes, restaurants, and other businesses, providing regular inspections and treatments to keep premises safe for staff and customers.
