23.01.2022 This is how termites can build around steel foundation posts, the taller the post the less likely this is to happen, but it still can.

22.01.2022 Stumps around your property should be removed, they are a perfect food source attracting termites. This increases termite pressure on your home. If you find active termites in a stump it should be treated by a professional before removal.

21.01.2022 A new client of mine went away for 1 week, this cupboard had been used the day they left and this was not there, but when they got back home this is what they found, it's lucky that the termites had showed themselves to prompt them to get an inspection because luckily the damage was minimal, some people are not so lucky. This is a pole home in Canungra.

20.01.2022 Just to show how clever termites can be, they managed to get up this solid concrete pier, they had made it up to the main bearer under the render and destroy it. The dark grey area is an active termite barrier we installed to prevent this from happening again, the cut out section you can see below will go back on.

16.01.2022 Moisture is a powerful attractant for termites, it is important to make sure you have good drainage around your house and plumbing has no leaks, showers are common to have moisture issues that cannot be detected by eye. If unsure I recommend a termite inspection, termites inspections find these kind of issues and provide recommendations.

15.01.2022 This was a termite entry point that was used by termites to do considerable damage to the internal wall frame timbers. It can happen that easy and they usually enter in a concealed way. Without regular inspections you can only hope you notice signs something is wrong before it goes to far.

12.01.2022 These termites made it passed the termite shielding and got in to the bathroom area, termite shielding does not stop termites but it is designed to avoid concealed termite entry, it usually makes them have to come out and around it, In this case they had exposed themselves anyway but it would have been possible for them to have gained concealed entry due to the way it was installed.

09.01.2022 This is a house on Tamborine Mountain. All ground levels around the perimeter of a house should be at least 75mm below the bottom of the weep holes, the picture illustrates how easy it would be for termites to gain concealed entry, as for gardens, I can't stress this enough they should be removed from against a house, they can attract and conceal termite entry and also the root systems can damage the foundations.

08.01.2022 Skink fight under a house at Eagle Heights.

08.01.2022 If your house is built off the ground you have the ability to keep an eye on possible leaks of your wet areas. Anywhere that pipes enter are generally wet areas, kitchens, bathrooms for example. This is something you should catch early as this can attract Termites but also be very expensive to repair.

07.01.2022 The mountain is such an awesome place, I accidentally scared this lizard while doing a termite inspection, it headed straight up this tree. I saw it at the last second and it also scared crap out of me.

05.01.2022 No point having Termite shielding if all the timber around it is breaching it. No timber that is in direct contact with the ground should be in direct contact with your house. Some treated pole homes are an exception.

02.01.2022 If your about to buy a house, make sure you use a reputable company to do your building and pest inspection. Somehow this was missed in a house at Tamborine, this is only the beginning of the damage that was missed, so make sure the company goes through the roof, insulation or not, the young family who brought this house was let down by a company and ended up buying a lot of heartache and stress. No compensation was given.

02.01.2022 We drilled in to the center of a large suspect tree stump at Eagle Heights because the garage beside it had been almost completely destroyed, the termite soldiers came out to investigate confirming our suspicions.

01.01.2022 Scorpion at Eagle Heights, could not help but to move it out of harm's way before doing the pest treatment.
