Do Termites Prefer Some Regions More Than Other Areas?
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. Luckily, with some help from Conquer Termites Northside, you can learn everything you need to about why termites are attracted to certain suburbs.

Different regions offer termites different resources, which means you'll find them spread out unevenly across the country. 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. 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. 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. Avoid any unnecessary termite risks by learning what makes them more common in one suburb over another.
What Can I Do To Make Sure My Home Stays Insect-Free?
Can I Keep My Home Free From Insects? For most people, it's better if your bedroom remains insect-free. Sometimes that's easier said than done, though, as insects and bugs can be quite determined when it comes to getting into your home. Luckily, with some help from Conquer Termites Northside and our pest control experts, you'll find that making sure your home is resistant to all bug invasions doesn't always have to be difficult. If you need help with pest control in Mount Pleasant, contact us on (07) 3356 8801.
With these easy measures, you might be able to keep bugs away from your living room. 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. 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. Should you still suffer from a pest problem at this stage, then you may need a professional to help you with your pest control. Uninvited insects should be kept away from your home - with these steps, you might be able to get it done.
Once A Pest Control Treatment Has Been Completed, Can I Clean My House?
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. Conquer Termites Northside can help you understand exactly what your home will need once you've completed a pest control treatment. For all pest control in Mount Pleasant, call us on (07) 3356 8801.
Once the pest control treatment is complete, for at least a week, you should avoid cleaning your home. 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. 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. 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. 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.
