PEST CONTROL TOOWOOMBA

Spider Control

Pests like termites can cause havoc when it comes to your property. We offer a full range of services to detect and prevent infestations so your premise retains its value and structural integrity. All of our pest detection, prevention and eradication methods are safe for you and your family and highly effective at preventing pests from taking over your property.

Pre-Purchase Pest Inspections

Purchasing a property is a big commitment and it is vital that you carry out your due diligence before finalising or settling on the property. Having a pre-purchase pest inspection is an imperative step to ensure there is no hidden infestation or structural damage.
 
Our team will carry out a comprehensive inspection using state-of-the-art equipment that will locate the presence of any potentially harmful pests and the damage they have already inflicted onto the property. This can help you get a discount on the property to have the right extermination carried out, or back away from purchasing the property entirely.

To have the most comprehensive protection against termites and other damaging pests, it is recommended that you have both physical and chemical barriers to prevent them from infiltrating your property. Physical barriers include mesh, plastic or other solid shields that can also be coated in chemicals to stop the march of insects and other pests.
 
Chemical treatment can include trenches being dug around your foundations and impregnated with chemicals that deflect pests while remaining safe for your children and pets because they are located underground. These chemicals may also be injected into holes in the timber or concrete in your foundations or building.



Baiting & Monitoring Systems

A common issue with termites is that it can be difficult to reach the entire colony. Our baiting and monitoring service effectively eliminate termites in the walls of your property and the external colony that could create problems down the track.
 
The baiting and monitoring process involves a feeding station being placed above a space where there is known termite activity. They are attracted into the feeding station and become infected with a chemical that makes them unable to replace their skin when they shed it. They return to the colony and infect the rest of the termites, which then all die off when they shed their skin.



Borer Treatment for Timber

The termite is not the only insect that can cause major damage to the timber structures of your home. The borer beetle is another common culprit and, by the time they are detected, it can often be too late. The adults lay eggs in your timber and the juvenile larvae cause damage as they feed for their development.
 
Preventing this from happening is the best strategy and we can apply a low-toxicity chemical treatment to your timber that will prevent the juvenile larvae from causing damage in the first instance. It also helps to prevent fungal damage and ward off a number of insects that can cause damage to your home.
 

Pre-construction pest barriers

If you are building a new home or business, protecting it from termites and other pests is vital. Waiting until later for extermination processes might mean you already have extensive damage to your premises, so it is always best to have the right preventative measures put in place while construction is taking place.
 
Our team can work with your builder and contractors to include physical and chemical termite barriers and treatments to prevent other pests from setting in. That way, when you move into your new premises you can be assured that you are protected from infestation.
