Why Do Termites Prefer To Gather In Some Suburbs But Not Others?
Our team recently did an analysis of Brisbane suburbs to try and find the places we felt were hardest hit by termites. The reason behind this high termite activity, however, wasn't covered in that analysis. You can easily work out just what attracts termites to any given suburb, thankfully, with a little help from Conquer Termites Northisde.

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. Consequently, any suburb with a high number of gumtrees, melaleuca quinquenervias (paperbark trees), or with a high number of creeks and rivers, may soon find themselves overwhelmed with the pest. Otherwise, if the average build quality in the region is low, it might be simpler for termites to feast on a home, before the colony rapidly expands into the outlying area. It's not generally an option to have every termite in the suburb removed all at once which means that total eradication of the pest becomes nearly impossible, so you should do everything in your power to make sure your home is as safe as it can be. Avoid any unnecessary termite risks by learning what makes them more common in one suburb over another.
How Do I Keep Insects Out Of My Home?
Can I Keep My Home Free From Insects? For most people, it's better if your bedroom remains insect-free.

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. Seal up any baseboards and windows in your home, and make sure there are no pests in the packages you're bring inside to seal off any obvious entry points. Replace any window screens with large holes in them, and make sure that when you're cleaning your windows, you don't take the screens off for too long. In the event that your home is still flooded with bugs, then it might be time to consider reaching out to a professional regarding pest control. Uninvited insects should be kept away from your home - with these steps, you might be able to get it done.
After A Pest Control Treatment, Should I Clean My Home?
If you want to keep bugs out of your home, you might find yourself wanting an excellent pest treatment. Sadly, though you might want to clean your house right after one of these treatments to keep it as spick and span as possible, that might not be the best idea. 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. For all pest control in Geebung, 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. Throw away your garbage as it accumulates, and, of course, if there was any food left out during our treatment, you can feel free to throw that away as well. However, do avoid performing a deep clean of your home in this time, as it may cause the treatment to rub away before it has had a chance to become effective. If you can avoid the temptation to clean away cobwebs, which our team uses to treat any spiders in your home, then you are welcome to clean your home before we arrive. Making sure your pest control treatment is effective can be as simple as making sure you don't clean your home immediately after it has been completed.
