Our team recently did an analysis of Brisbane suburbs to try and find the places we felt were hardest hit by termites. However, for some people, there still remains a burning question about why these suburbs are hit so hard by the pests. Fortunately, Conquer Termites Northside and our team of experts can help you understand what attracts termites to any given suburb. For help with all termites in Toowong, call us on (07) 3356 8801.

Termites don't spread out evenly across the country, and instead have regions they prefer to congregate. Shelter, food, and water are of the utmost importance to termites and other pests. This means that suburbs with lots of trees, such as gumtrees or melaleuca quinquenervias (commonly known as paperbark trees), or with regions with high moisture retention, like creeks or rivers, can quickly find themselves swarming with termites. 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. 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.

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. Water sources in your home can quickly attract insects and bugs inside, which means you'll need to patch any water leaks that may have sprung. Make certain that you're not welcoming pests into your home by ensuring all of your windows and baseboards are sealed correctly, and that any packages you bring inside are pest free. 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. 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. By taking these simple measures, you should be able to reduce the number of bugs and insects that sneak uninvited into your home.

If you want to keep bugs out of your home, you might find yourself wanting an excellent pest treatment. However, cleaning your home immediately after these treatments may not be as beneficial as it would seem. 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. For all pest control in Toowong, 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. Naturally, you should continue to avoid allowing mess to overtake your home. You can continue throwing away garbage as it accumulates, and if you accidentally left any food out while we did our treatment, it might be best to throw that away, too. 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. 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.
