What are Termites?
Termites are an insect that have descended from a cockroach-like ancestor. Termites that are commonly referred to as “White Ants” in Australia, but they are not ants.
There are 350 difference species of termites within Australia and a small number of species cause over 100 million dollars of property damage each year.
3 Facts about Termites
- Ecologically speaking termites are a beneficial insects, however they are a serious issue for home and property owners.
- The worker and soldier termites are almost always blind.
- Termite soldiers will tap warning signals to the colony when they detect a threat.
What Termites Can Do
1 in 5 houses have or have had a termite infestation and/or damage. It is important to note that termites will eat any timber or wood that is inside your home.
Termites are capable of eating 5 grams of wood every day and they don’t stop eating, consuming wood 24 hours a day.
Finding the Queen when removing termites from a property is very important as a single colony is able to destroy a home. Living up to 25 years and producing 1000 eggs per day makes them able to cause large amounts of damage to a home over a relatively short period of time.
7 Signs Termites Are In Your Property

- Hollow sounding timber, termites will often consume wood from the inside out, when knocking or tapping in the area will often sound hollow or papery.
- Tight fitting doors or hard to open windows. This can be a sign of termites as the moisture termites produce when eating and tunnelling through a door and window frame can cause the wood to warp out of shape.
- Tunnels in the Wood, often difficult to see from the outside but if you see them in a piece of broken timber near or in your house it can be a sign that there may termites in the property.

One of best ways to prevent more series termite infestations is an annual termite inspection. These inspections can assess the property and identify the best ways to minimise the risks.

An inspection is like getting insurance for this type of damage and with termites relentlessly popping up in new locations, it is well worth it.

By applying a chemical treatment around either a specific part or a full perimeter around the property we can create a barrier between the property and the termites.
Termites are prevented from infesting a property by the application of the chemical barrier.
