What Makes A Suburb Bad For Termites?
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. Thankfully, if you want to learn about why termites are attracted to any given suburb, Conquer Termites Northside can help. For help with all termites in Shorncliffe, call us on (07) 3356 8801.
Termites don't spread out evenly across the country, and instead have regions they prefer to congregate. Food, water, and shelter are of the highest priorities to most termites, as with many other pests. Subsequently, the pest loves any suburbs that has a high moisture retention level, such as regions covered in creeks and rivers, and they also love parklands and large quantities of trees. 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.
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.

There are a few simple things you can check to make sure that bugs aren't able to sneak into your home. Find any leaks in your home and patch them up to make sure water isn't able to accumulate. Windows and baseboards need to be entirely sealed to make certain there aren't any easy ways to enter your home, and you will also need to check your packages for pests to ensure you're not bringing them into your home yourself. 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.

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. 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. Thankfully, Conquer Termites Northside and our excellent team can help you take care of your home the right way after getting a pest control treatment. For all pest control in Shorncliffe, call us on (07) 3356 8801.
After we complete a pest control treatment for your home, it's most important that you avoid cleaning for at least a week. Mess isn't something you should simply tolerate, naturally. Dispose of any food that you may have left out during our treatment, and continue to keep your home free of garbage as you normally would. 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.
