If you own a property, you know how important it is to protect it from damage. However, one of the most significant threats to your property's structural integrity is often hidden from plain sight: termites. These tiny insects can cause huge damage to wooden structures, leading to costly repairs and even safety hazards. That's why it's crucial to invest in effective termite control measures. In this article, we'll explore the top five benefits of termite control, and why it's essential to prioritise termite prevention and treatment for your property’s health and longevity.
Termites are silent destroyers that can go unnoticed for months or even years. By the time you discover an infestation, the damage has already been done. Effective termite control measures, such as regular inspections and treatments, can help protect your property from the extensive damage caused by termites and borers.
Investing in termite control may seem like an unnecessary expense, but it can actually save you money in the long run. The cost of repairing termite damage can be significant and even if you’re insured, your plan may not cover the full cost of rectification. By preventing termite infestations, you can avoid costly repairs and potential structural damage.
Knowing your property is protected from termites can give you peace of mind. You won't have to worry about the hidden threat of termite infestations and can focus on maintaining your property and enjoying its many benefits.
Did you know termites can cause mould and mildew growth, which can lead to poor indoor air quality? Simply eliminating termite infestations can improve the air you and your family are breathing in your home, preventing potential health issues.
When it comes to termite treatments, there are several options available on the market. However, some of the most popular and effective treatments are Trelona and Termidor. Both treatments work by eliminating the entire termite colony, rather than just targeting the visible infestation.
Trelona bait systems use a highly attractive bait matrix that termites can't resist. Termidor treatments use a non-repellent liquid that is applied around the perimeter of the property, forming a barrier that termites cannot detect. As termites collect the bait or travel through the treated soil, they pick up the active ingredient and bring it back to the colony, ultimately leading to its elimination. Both methods are simple yet highly effective methods for eradicating termites and preventing future infestations.
