Can You Stop Rats From Coming In To Your Home?
Unless they're a pet, you probably don't want rats in your home. You'll still find yourself having a heart attack in the early morning when a rat sneaks into your home regardless of the very solid walls the house is built of and runs past your feet in the dark. Keeping the more elusive pests out of your home is a particular speciality of Conquer Termites Northside, and we excel at holding rats at bay. Pest control in Toorbul is simple; call us on (07) 3356 8801 today.
There is always a reason rats are trying to get into your home, as well as a very logical ingress point. Food, water, and shelter are normally the primary concerns for these pests, which means that you should make sure your property isn't providing rats with these things. Make sure there is no food lying about your property, that your garbage bins are constantly covered, and any produce is picked and stored appropriately. Rats are able to fit through gaps as small as two and a half cm, so you should patch any holes in the exterior of your home to keep them from getting in to deprive them of their shelter. Once you've taken these measures, any further rat problem will need to be dealt with by a pest control expert. There are steps you can take to stop rats from sneaking into your home when they're not wanted.
Which Tools Will Your Team Use To Perform Termite Inspections For Pre-Purchase Homes?
Undergoing a termite inspection during pre-purchase can be incredibly useful, as it can help buyers make informed decisions about the property. Performing these inspections in a non-destructive way is simple with the wide expanse of tools available to our team. You can learn more about the tools Conquer Termites Northside uses before your inspection, so that you'll understand exactly what our team is doing. Call our team on (07) 3356 8801 if you're faced with termites in Toorbul.
Finding termites hiding on your land or in your home won't be hard with the fantastic selection of tools and equipment available to us. Moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras form the backbone of our toolbox for these inspections, accompanied by a wide selection of more common tools. The moisture meter is able to find high levels of moisture in your wood and walls. Termites crave moisture and will bring it into your home, which means a high level of moisture can suggest an active infestation or the resources necessary to sustain one. Individually, termites don't give off a lot of body heat and won't show up on the thermal imaging camera, but collectively, the colonies will light up orange and can be easily spotted by our team. There are a wide variety of tools used during your pre-purchase termite inspections, all of which help ensure we find any of the pest hiding in your home.
Does A Pre-Purchase Termite Inspection Explore The Land Itself?
When you're buying a new home, it's easy to get caught up with the house itself. The land the house sits on, however, is also quite important, and you will need to make sure it suits your needs, regardless of where you are buying. Do your due diligence with a pre-purchase termite inspection from Conquer Termites Northside to make sure your new land isn't hiding any pest-related secrets. Get in touch with us on (07) 3356 8801 if termites in Toorbul are causing you problems.
Before settlement is completed, it is a wise idea to assess if the property has been damaged by termites, or if any of the pests maintain active colonies on the land. Covering everything on your land including gardens, fence lines, and the external perimeter, our inspections are comprehensive. To make sure we explore every part of your land appropriately, we'll also thoroughly investigate any tree stumps we find, as well as any loose timbers and roots. If you're trying to sell your home, organising one of these inspections is an easy way to provide ease-of-mind for your prospective buyers and can be a strong bargaining chip during negotiations. By not leaving a mess behind while we work, we're able to help ensure a smooth transition when it comes time to complete settlement. Make sure our team does a termite inspection on your new home during pre-purchase to avoid buying a property with termite issues you weren't aware of.
