The Most Trusted Termite Inspection Toowoomba Has To Offer

termite inspection toowoombaTermites are tiny pests, but their impact on homes in Toowoomba can result in massive damage. With the average cost of damage at $7,000 across Australia, waiting until you see clear signs of an infestation is like waiting until after a known disaster to address the causes.

Inspections are one way to stop this type of trouble in their tracks. Even if you don’t suspect a problem, chances are that your home is prone to attack.

Reasons to schedule a termite inspection

They are the most damaging pests around, seeking out anything made of dead or decaying plant matter as their main food source. This includes any wood used to build your home.

Working their way primarily underground, they can enter your home through the foundation and make their way throughout, jeopardising the integrity of the structure itself. Safety alone is a key reason to schedule an inspection. You can have peace of mind that your home is not under siege by these creepy crawlers.

Another key reason is cost. Not only can termite infestation be extensive and costly, but most home insurance policies do not cover the costs of this damage. Anything you have to replace or repair becomes an out of pocket expense.

Partly because of this, Australians looking to sell their home are also required to submit to an inspection. This protects the incoming buyer from any risk with a current infestation.

By regularly scheduling termite inspections, you can avoid most costly or urgent treatments as well. Inspections as part of a prevention plan can help you catch any issues early in the infestation, mitigating the extent of any damage to your home (or your bank account).

What to expect during an inspection service call

The point of the inspection is to have a thorough examination completed of all the spaces where these insects could enter the home or take up residence. The entire inspection can take up to two hours, depending on how large your home and property are.

During a termite inspection, the technician will inspect the exterior for entry points. They will also look at wooden framing around windows and doors, skirting, walls, and subflooring for signs of insect activity.

Since they like damp wood as much as dry, anywhere that water is present will also be checked. This includes spaces around hot water heaters and condensation pipework around HVAC units.

The inspector should be able to report on any areas of insect activity in or around your home as well as any damage as a result. Even if the pests are not present, the inspector can provide advice for how to stave off an infestation including treatment plan options. This may be customised depending on the unique needs of your home and its allure to the these insects.

Your checklist for choosing the right pest control service

With this type of rampant in Australia, so are the number of companies claiming to eradicate them – but not all pest control services are the same.
