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. Luckily, with some help from Conquer Termites Northside, you can learn everything you need to about why termites are attracted to certain suburbs.

You won't find termites concentrated in any one place in Australia, and will instead find them spread out haphazardly around the country. Most pests spend their lives in search of shelter, water, and food, and termites are no exceptions. Rivers, creeks, and parklands can all serve to attract termites as a result. Alternatively, in suburbs with a lower average build quality, termites might be more easily able to slip into your home and begin to build a colony before spreading into the rest of the community, creating a high termite incidence. 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. With termite hotspots spread around the country, it's important that you understand what will attract the pest to any given suburb.

Keeping bugs out of your home can be as simple as a few easy steps. Prevent large patches of water accumulating by finding and repairing any leaks that may have sprung up in your home. Stop pests from finding an easy way into your home by sealing any baseboards and windows on the exterior, and avoid bringing them in yourself by checking each of your packages before you bring them inside. Finally, make sure your window screens don't have any holes in them, and avoid taking out the window screens for extended periods of time. Should you still suffer from a pest problem at this stage, then you may need a professional to help you with your pest control. By taking these simple measures, you should be able to reduce the number of bugs and insects that sneak uninvited into your home.
How Should I Clean My Home After A Pest Control Treatment?
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 Sandstone Point, call us on (07) 3356 8801.
It's best if you avoid cleaning for at least a week after completing a pest control treatment in your home. Of course, that's not to say you need to simply allow mess to pile up and overwhelm you. As per normal, stop garbage and waste from accumulating in your home, and get rid of any food that you may have left out during our treatment. To ensure the treatment is effective, you should, however, avoid performing a deep clean of your home, as you may rub away the treatment prematurely. 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. Though it may be tempting, you should avoid cleaning your home immediately after a pest control treatment.
