Termites, also known as ‘white ants’, serve an important function in nature by feeding on dead trees and converting them into organic matter. There are approximately 350 species of termites in Australia & approximately 20 species can eat solid wood in buildings. These particular species require ideal temperature and humidity levels to survive and live in colonies up to seven metres below the soil surface with up to more than one million termites. Extensive tunnel networks can extend up to 100 metres from the nest. Any timbers in your garden and home can provide an ideal environment for termites.

- Our technicians can be trusted to carry out a professional job. They have a full Timber Pest Licence, Professional Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance.
- All Termite Inspections are carried out to Australian Standards or greater.
- Termite Inspections are very thorough, at least 1 hour for an average house. The Inspector will need access to all rooms including the ceiling cavity.
- The Termite Inspection is performed with an array of tools and thorough Visual Inspection of the premises. These tools can include but are not limited to;
- Moisture Meter – an electronic device that detects moisture migration. Termites are almost 100% moisture and so this is a required tool in inspections.
- Video Inspection/ Boroscope – allows inspectors to see inside of wall cavities, trees and other structures (only with the approval of the property owner).
- Termatrac – Radar device. Termatrac is a valuable tool that is used to determine the likelihood of termite activity in a particular location.
- Thermal Imaging – infrared technology that detects hot spots in wall cavities. Can assist in Termite Detection in conjunction with other methods of detection.
- Inspection Probes (Sounding Donger)/ Listening devices – important for hearing termite activity within the buildings walls.
- Pest Inspection Report – will be provided within 24 hours documenting termite activity and the risk of Termite Infestation.
