What are Termites

Termites are small insects that live underground, on ground, in trees or in wooden houses. The main termites of concern to pest controllers in the Brisbane region are the subterranean termites. These termites travel mostly underground or through concealed shelter tubes or nests. Most have a creamy golden colour and ant like appearance.

How do I know or check if I have termites in my property?

The best way to check if you have termites in your residential or commercial property is to arrange a professional termite inspection as recommended by CSIRO. However a few things to look out for are:

  • Any pieces of timber in direct contact with the ground should be removed.
  • Stumps in the ground are a hotspot for termites and should be dug out.
  • Flying termites leaving from your property or a nearby tree means there is a nest nearby.
  • What involved in a visual termite inspection?

When you book a termite inspection with us, we will arrive on site at a time that suits you. We will begin by checking the external areas including gardens, enhces and the perimeter of you home. The termite technician will then inspect all internal areas using a tapper to tap all wooden skirtings, window and door frames. They will also use a moisture meter, thermal imaging camera or a termatrac to assist us during our inspection. Lastly we will inspect your roof void. Once the inspection is complete a detailed visual termite inspection report will be emailed.

A termite inspection generally costs anywhere from $195 to $340 depending on the company you choose. We charge a flat $185 including GST for a visual termite inspection for any house in Brisbane.
