Recently, we did an investigation into the suburbs of Brisbane worst effected by termites. However, for some people, there still remains a burning question about why these suburbs are hit so hard by the pests. You can easily work out just what attracts termites to any given suburb, thankfully, with a little help from Conquer Termites Northisde. If you're facing problems with termites in Bracalba, get in touch with our team 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. Most pests spend their lives in search of shelter, water, and food, and termites are no exceptions. This means that suburbs with lots of trees, such as gumtrees or melaleuca quinquenervias (commonly known as paperbark trees), or with regions with high moisture retention, like creeks or rivers, can quickly find themselves swarming with termites. Poorly-built homes can also allow termites to slip in more easily, which then allows them to being attacking the neighbouring houses. Either way, once termites have become common in the region, it can become very difficult to eradicate them entirely, and it is best that you do everything you can to protect your home and assets from termite damage. With termite hotspots spread around the country, it's important that you understand what will attract the pest to any given suburb.

Generally, insects are best left outside of your home, not welcomed into your bedroom. 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. That's not to say it's always difficult, thankfully, as with some help from Conquer Termites Northside and our outstanding team, you'll quickly be able to make your home a bug-free fortress. Call us on (07) 3356 8801 today if you need help with pest control in Bracalba.

Ensure bugs aren't able to waltz into your home with these simple steps. Prevent large patches of water accumulating by finding and repairing any leaks that may have sprung up in your home. Make certain that you're not welcoming pests into your home by ensuring all of your windows and baseboards are sealed correctly, and that any packages you bring inside are pest free. Make sure there are no holes in your window screens, and avoid taking the screens off for too long at any given time, if at all. If you're still suffering from insects, then you'll need to reach out to a professional pest control expert, like the members of our fantastic team, for help. By taking these simple measures, you should be able to reduce the number of bugs and insects that sneak uninvited into your home.

A great pest treatment is an excellent way to keep your home bug-free. However, cleaning your home immediately after these treatments may not be as beneficial as it would seem. Luckily, if you want to take the right steps once we've worked in your home to make sure our pest control treatments are effective, you can rely on Conquer Termites Northside to help explain how. Get in touch with us on (07) 3356 8801 for any pest control in Bracalba you need.

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. Of course, that's not to say you need to simply allow mess to pile up and overwhelm you. You can continue throwing away garbage as it accumulates, and if you accidentally left any food out while we did our treatment, it might be best to throw that away, too. Performing a deep clean of your home can accidentally wash away the treatment, which needs to sit for a while before it is entirely effective; as such, avoid cleaning your home for at least a week after our treatment. Instead, clean your home before we complete our treatment, but don't remove any cobwebs, as our team can use these to treat your home for spiders. Though it may be tempting, you should avoid cleaning your home immediately after a pest control treatment.
