Pest Control Services Gold Coast

by

Providing Pest Control Services on the Gold Coast is part of what Gold Coast Termite Protection do on their daily run throughout the entire Gold Coast Region. We offer a discount on all Combined services where a Termite Inspection and Pest Control treatment is carried out at the same time.

Most Termite Management Programs begin with a Termite Inspection, which is an essential requirement if live termites have been located.

When live active termites have been found in or outside a property the first step is an inspection as we must be sure of all the areas the termites are hiding prior to treating them, this process will also include the identification of the termite species found.

The Termite treatment program can differ depending on the type of Termite species located and the type of construction (How the property has been built).

Not ever product or chemical is best suited to all situations, so rest assured Gold Coast Termite Protection can carry out an initial Termite Inspection, Termite Treatment and long term Termite protection to ensure your property is safe from a Termite attack. #termiteprotectiongoldcoast #termitesgoldcoast #pestcontrolgoldcoast #pestcontrolservicesgoldcoast Call 07 55762602 to book an inspection or Pest Control service on the GC

Termite Season will hit in September 2018 – an increase in Termite activity will rise

Live Schedorhinotermes

THAT’S THEM!! –  Termites, as they are cold blooded they thrive in humid conditions and continue on smashing homes beyond repair. Here on The Gold Coast especially in the dry conditions we are experiencing in South East Queensland be sure you reduce any excess moisture against the home that attracts termites. Termites need moisture to survive, so making sure that the Air conditioning overflow pipe or external taps that are against the home are directed to a drain or down pipe to avoid attracting termites close to the home that will lead them into the wall cavity for a feast.

 

 

Termite Barriers – New Construction

by

Termite Barriers for New Construction, Termites will forage through masonry core filled block walls. Masonry Core filled block walls must be protected and cannot be relied upon as a method of Termite Management, unless the entire wall is available for visual inspections, which is rarely ever achieved. There are options to minimise a full wall treatment, however only under the expert opinion of a Termite Management technician should any builder or owner builder attempt to build without the understanding of the requirements under the Australian Standards (AS3660.1:2014 Termite management, Part 1: New building work) and the National Construction Code. This photo indicates a compliant barrier installed to the masonry block walls. Need assistance call 07 55762602.

Termite damage on the Gold Coast

by

 

 

The sunshine, sandy soils and moisture, pine frame homes and a lot more, why wouldn’t a Termite nest on the Gold Coast……

 

Termites have been very busy smashing Gold Coast homes and home owners are feeling the effect of the damage they cause and the damage they cause to the bank balance.

 

The cost of a Termite Inspection or the cost of termite protection is minimal compared to the devastating effects of paying out anywhere from $3500.00 – $100,000.00. To be honest We rarely see homes get away with anything less than a fairly large termite repair bill (especially if all timbers are fixed properly) not to mention the treatments and the possibility of losing the well earned profit if termite damage is found during a per purchase building and pest inspection on the Gold Coast.  If in doubt call 0755762602
