Our team recently did an analysis of Brisbane suburbs to try and find the places we felt were hardest hit by termites. That investigation didn't cover why these regions are so hard hit by the pests, however. Fortunately, Conquer Termites Northside and our team of experts can help you understand what attracts termites to any given suburb. If you're facing problems with termites in Highvale, 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. 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. 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. No matter what way they introduce themselves to the suburb, once there, total eradication is unlikely, and it is probably best to simply try and protect your home as thoroughly as you can. Considering how spread out termites are in Australia, you should learn what makes them common in a particular region to make sure you're not facing any unnecessary risks.

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. 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. Avoid taking your window screens off for too long, and ensure there are no holes in the screens. Should you still suffer from a pest problem at this stage, then you may need a professional to help you with your pest control. Keep uninvited bugs and insects away from your home with these easy steps.

If you want to keep bugs out of your home, you might find yourself wanting an excellent pest treatment. With that in mind, you should avoid performing a rigorous cleaning in the time following one of these treatments, as it can undermine the effectiveness of our work. Fortunately, with the team here at Conquer Termites Northside, you'll be able to understand how best to take care of your home once our team has treated it for bugs. Get in touch with us on (07) 3356 8801 for any pest control in Highvale 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. 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. 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. It may be better to clean your home just before we arrive, but you should avoid removing cobwebs, because we treat your home for spiders using them. Cleaning your home immediately following a pest control treatment can cause it to lose efficiency.
