Not that long ago, we had a look at some key Brisbane suburbs to try and determine which regions were affected by termites the worst. However, for some people, there still remains a burning question about why these suburbs are hit so hard by the pests. Thankfully, if you want to learn about why termites are attracted to any given suburb, Conquer Termites Northside can help. For help with all termites in Ashgrove, call us on (07) 3356 8801.

Australia is home to pockets of termites across the country, not an even blanket spread out across every square inch of land. As with most pests, termites are attracted to any region where they can find food, water, and shelter. Rivers, creeks, and parklands can all serve to attract termites as a result. Another popular way for termites to infiltrate a suburb is via homes with a lower build quality, where they will begin to build a colony before spreading out into the surrounding houses. Regardless of how they infiltrate your region, it's important that you do your best to protect your home, as completing removing the termites from the area is unlikely. With termite hotspots spread around the country, it's important that you understand what will attract the pest to any given suburb.

Normally, insects tend to belong outside of your home, not allowed to roam free through your halls. However, the act of keeping them out can quickly become complicated, and there are a number of things you should check to make sure insects aren't interested in sneaking into your home when you're not looking. Thankfully, making sure your home remains free of bugs is simple for Conquer Termites Northside and our fantastic team. If you need help with pest control in Ashgrove, contact us on (07) 3356 8801.

Ensure bugs aren't able to waltz into your home with these simple steps. First, make sure that water isn't being allowed to accumulate anywhere, which means checking for leaks and fixing them. Stop pests from finding an easy way into your home by sealing any baseboards and windows on the exterior, and avoid bringing them in yourself by checking each of your packages before you bring them inside. Avoid taking your window screens off for too long, and ensure there are no holes in the screens. It might be best to contact a professional regarding pest control if you haven't been able to repel bugs with these steps. By taking these simple measures, you should be able to reduce the number of bugs and insects that sneak uninvited into your home.

Keeping a bug-free home can be as easy as getting a great pest control treatment for your house. However, cleaning your home immediately after these treatments may not be as beneficial as it would seem. Thankfully, Conquer Termites Northside and our excellent team can help you take care of your home the right way after getting a pest control treatment. For all pest control in Ashgrove, call us on (07) 3356 8801.

Pest control treatments will need to sit for at least a week to make sure they're effective, which means you won't be able to do a deep clean for that time. That doesn't mean you need to let mess accumulate, of course. As per normal, stop garbage and waste from accumulating in your home, and get rid of any food that you may have left out during our treatment. The treatment does require time to be effective, which means you shouldn't be too quick to perform a deep clean of your home afterwards, as it may rub away the treatment itself. You're welcome to clean your home before we perform our treatment, though you shouldn't clean up any cobwebs that you may find - our team will use the cobwebs to treat for spiders. Though it may be tempting, you should avoid cleaning your home immediately after a pest control treatment.
