It's not likely that you'll want rats hanging out in your home. However, this particular pest has a seemingly-magical ability to sneak past any walls and appear in your home when you least expect it. Fortunately, you'll be able to keep pests and rats out of your home with some help from Conquer Termites Northside. For all queries related to pest control in Whiteside, contact us on (07) 3356 8801.
All pests need both a reason to enter your home as well as a way in, and rats are no exception. You should focus on stopping rats from finding what they're looking for on your property: water, shelter, and food. Your property should be devoid of food lying about, the produce you're growing (if any) should be picked and stored appropriately as soon as is possible, and your garbage bins should always be covered. 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. Should all else fail, a pest control expert can help you get your rat problem under control. There are steps you can take to stop rats from sneaking into your home when they're not wanted.
Does Your Team Use Tools When Performing A Termite Inspection In Pre-Purchase?
The utility of a termite inspection during the pre-purchase phase is unrivalled, as it can help deliver peace-of-mind to wary buyers. There is a variety of tools and equipment that our team can use to find out as much about the property as possible without leaving any lasting marks. Learning more about what types of tools we'll use is simple with Conquer Termites Northside. For help with all termites in Whiteside, contact us on (07) 3356 8801.
Termites won't be able to hide on your property, thanks to the wide array of tools that we'll use to find them. Thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters are the two tools most commonly used during pre-purchase inspections, though other tools may also be necessary. If your walls or the wood of your home has high levels of moisture, the moisture meter will find it. 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. While termites may not give off enough heat to register on the thermal imaging camera individually, large groups of the pest, such as their colonies, definitely will. 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.
