Regular Termite Inspections
Regular termite inspections are important for two reasons. First, termites can cause a great deal of damage to your property if they are left unchecked. Second, early detection of termites can help to prevent an infestation from becoming established.
By scheduling regular inspections, you can rest assured that any potential problem will be located and dispensed with before it has a chance to cause serious damage. Regular inspections can also help to identify potential risk factors for future infestations, such as gardens against walls, unsound building practices and leaks in the plumbing. Inspections supply detail on how the home owner can implement maintenance procedures to lesson the risk of termite attack.
By taking steps to address these issues, you can further reduce the risk of an infestation. Ultimately, regular termite inspections are an essential part of protecting your property from these destructive pests.
Termite Treatments
There are a variety of methods that can be used to treat termites, depending on the severity of the infestation and the type of termite.
- Physical barriers such as ant capping can be used which do not eliminate attack but force the termites into the open for early detection. Pouring of a monolithic slab during construction and insertion of stainless-steel mesh to penetrations. This results in exposed slab edge for ease of early detection.
- Chemical barriers, such as pesticides or insecticides, can be used to kill termites.
- Colony elimination systems and monitor stations can be used to track and eliminate termite colonies.
- Nest detection and destruction can be used to locate and destroy termite nests.
- Dust treatment can be used to kill termites in their nests. Removal of nests can also be effective in eliminating a termite problem.
We will assess each building on its own merits and use tried and tested, non-toxic treatments to rid your home or business of termites.
Pre-Purchase Termite Inspection Reports
Before buying a home, it is important to have a termite inspection report. This report will help to identify any potential problems with the property that could be expensive to fix. Termites can cause extensive damage to a home, and they can be very difficult to get rid of once they are established.
By having a termite inspection report, you can be sure that the property you are interested in is not at risk for this type of damage. This report can also give you peace of mind knowing that the home you are about to purchase is in good condition.
