DID YOU KNOW?

• Three in five homes are affected by termites in NSW
• Termites can nest underground, in trees or in a home where there is moisture
• A termite Queen can live up to 25 years and produce more than 2000 eggs a day
• Termites can travel 100m underground in search of a food source (house)
• Your insurance does not cover your house for any damage done by termites
• Termites can do tens of thousands of dollars damage to a house

AREAS OF RISK

• The CSIRO rates Sydney as a very High Risk Area.

Your home is at very high risk if you have any of the following : trees (especially gum trees) within a 100m radius, garden sleepers, timber fences, tree stumps, timber stored under or around your home, mulch, garden beds built up around the walls of your home, leaking pipes, damp subfloors, poor ventilation, adjoining properties with termites – termite attack is not limited to these factors.

SIGNS TO LOOK FOR

• Swarming insects ( most likely reproductive termites ) in large numbers, especially on a warm afternoon. They usually drop their wings when they land.
• If you see this, chances are there is a termite nest in the near vicinity
• Soft, warped, spongy or new creaks in floorboards.
• Ripples or cracks in flooring, skirting boards, door frames and window frames. ( not limited )
• Brown (mud like) spots or tracks appearing in timber, walls and ceilings in or around your home. May also appear in trees, fences and garden sleepers. Not limited to these.

WHAT TO DO

• It is very important that you do not touch or disturb active termites as they may shut down and move to some other part of the house where they may be difficult to find.
• A Professional Pest Inspector should be called to identify the species and to assess the level of infestation.
• A thorough inspection of the building and surrounds should be carried out by a Professional Pest Inspector according to Australian Standards 3660.
• A Professional inspection can save you thousands of dollars and a lot of heartache.
