CANBERRA, DOES YOUR PROPERTY PASS THE TERMITE TEST?

DOES YOUR PROPERTY PASS THE TERMITE TEST?
http://a1pestcontrolcanberra.com.au

Many the pests we treat are seasonal but not termites who bury underground and head for their food source which is wood.

They will tunnel towards your property and surface close to water or dampness making mud tracks which will lead them to inside your property where they will go undetected all the while they are chewing around the door, roof and timber supports.

Recently in Kambah, we showed a tree that had a termite nest a tree on the nature strip while the workers were in the nest the soldier termites were looking to start a new nest in the property diagonally across from the tree.

By the time that termites were discovered (by a tenant falling through the wooden floor) they had eaten around the door/window frames of the front of the house.

TERMITE TEST

[] Do you have annual termite inspections?
[] Is there a pile of wood near the house or garage?
[] Is there wood beams or pergola that touch the ground?
[] Have you got a tree stump on or near your property?
[] Any damp or hard to get to areas under your house?

The old saying prevention is better than cure book a termite inspection TODAY for peace of mind. Thermal imagining will pick up termite body heat and movement long before they are seen.

Should you require a termite barrier we are one of only a few preferred applicators of Termidor who give an 8 year $2M assurance that you won't have termites come back.

THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO EEEEEW...

http://a1pestcontrolcanberra.com.au

We get all sorts of different requests which are obviously upsetting to the homeowner - especially if its maggots!

A call at 8pm the other night had maggots falling out of the over the shove exhaust and believe it or not this is common when rats or possums die either from baits or they get trapped inside the roof and can't find their way out.

It's different in summer you would definitnely smell the bodies by this stage that maggots are on the body of the animal but in winter they keep for a little longer.

We have even had maggots dropping from the down lights.

WHAT WE DO...

We will retrieve the body and dispose of it BUT replace with an odour bag one that does not mask the smell but actually absorbs the smell.

If you have have ANY pest problems call Bob 0407 065 413

FAILED THE TERMITE TEST?

http://a1pestcontrolcanberra.com.au

If you are wanting to sell a property quickly nothing stops prospective buyers when the words "termites found" stands out on a pest report.

This happened to a customer this morning who had a buyer ready to sign on the dotted line when he re-read a report that there were termites found in the garden beds and had found mud tracks leading into the house.

This buyer was then able to say he was keen to buy but NOT until the termites were treated. This cost the owner a termite barrier and repair to the structures.

“TERMITE PEST CONTROL CANBERRA 3 TIMES LUCKY!”…

I have been telling a few horror stories of what has happened when property owners do not have regular termite inspections here is another story of 3 strikes and your out – please read on.

Bob and the team were called out to O’Connor (Nth Canberra) and its not the first time that we have found live termites in their home but the owner thought that by us chasing the termites out that would be enough to get rid of his problem – wrong!

The termites had attacked the house in the opposite direction and again we mentioned the termite barrier to be installed asap to protect the house from further invasion but we got “I will think about and give you a call”

3 months now past and we got another call same address HELP the termites have been found in another area of the home and “we want them GONE for good when can you do the job!”

Finally, common sense prevailed and not we are installing a chemical barrier with 8 year 2 million dollar assurance that the termites WILL NOT be back!

We have worked out that the damage done the termite barrier would of saved them money if they got it done the first time before any further damage was done.

NEED RAT OR POSSUM PEST CONTROL?

http://a1pestcontrolcanberra.com.au

When the temperature is cold we have heating going indoors to keep us warm and heat rises so it is toasty warm in roof voids which is attractive to both possums and bush rats.

In the quiet of the night you will hear scratching sound or it could sound like someone tap dancing in army boots!

Normally we will get a call in the morning to ask us to come and check out the noise in the roof and through droppings we can tell if you have possums or rats and then take the appropriate action.

if its bush rats we will bait them and for possums we trap and release the possums (as they are protected). Before we do this though we find out where they are getting in so you can seal the area.

Possums travel in pairs and when you have trapped one and get all excited you do not want to seal where they are getting in until you have trapped the 2nd possum.

If you have noises in your call Bob 00407 065 413 who will investigate and fix your problem once and for all.
