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.
RING BOB 0407 065 413 to book your termite inspection TODAY.

THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO EEEEEW...


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?



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.
