It's a wise idea to perform a termite inspection during pre-purchase for your new home to make sure you avoid any unnecessary termite damage. Before you complete any property purchase, the Queensland Building and Construction Commission will generally recommend you undertake both a termite inspection and a general building inspection. These inspections, at this stage of the purchase, focuses entirely on the accessible areas of the property, and are entirely visual in nature. Any termite management systems installed in the home, their maintenance needs, and the risk of termite attacks in the area are all additional results of these inspections. You won't be able to perform these inspections yourself thanks to the complicated legal and practical nature of the work, and will instead need to hire a licensed and qualified team of pest professionals to perform them, like Conquer Termites Northside. Protect your new home from unnecessary termite damage by performing a pre-purchase termite inspection.

Termites undergo an 'incomplete metamorphosis' over the course of three distinct stages. These pests begin their lives as eggs, which are translucent and can be any colour from white to light brown. Despite their tiny size, these eggs can be seen by the naked eye. The infants that emerge from these eggs are called nymphs, and they're cared for by the colony's young workers. The queen's pheromones is able to control the development of a nymph into adulthood, ensuring they become the worker, solider, or other caste member that they need to be. Undergoing three phases during development, a termite's growth is considered to be an incomplete metamorphosis, though they move from infancy to adulthood.

If a material is made of cellulose, then termites will happily eat it. Since internal walls are commonly made of plasterboard, that makes them viable targets. Even though there is no cellulose in the plaster panels themselves, to make drywall, those panels are wrapped in paper, which does contain the substance. Moisture is one of the few other things valued by termites, which means you'll want to avoid allowing your drywalls to become moist at all costs. Though you should perform a professional inspection for termites on your home if you have even the faintest doubt that the pests have invaded your home, you may also be able to identify them via the pinholes they leave behind in your walls. Plasterboard makes for an excellent source of cellulose for any termites that may have wandered into your home.
