Do Termites Prefer Some Regions More Than Other Areas?
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.

Different regions offer termites different resources, which means you'll find them spread out unevenly across the country. Food, water, and shelter are of the highest priorities to most termites, as with many 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. It's not generally an option to have every termite in the suburb removed all at once which means that total eradication of the pest becomes nearly impossible, so you should do everything in your power to make sure your home is as safe as it can be. Considering how spread out termites are in Australia, you should learn what makes them common in a particular region to make sure you're not facing any unnecessary risks.
What Can I Do To Make Sure My Home Stays Insect-Free?
Can I Keep My Home Free From Insects? For most people, it's better if your bedroom remains insect-free. Sometimes that's easier said than done, though, as insects and bugs can be quite determined when it comes to getting into your home. Luckily, with some help from Conquer Termites Northside and our pest control experts, you'll find that making sure your home is resistant to all bug invasions doesn't always have to be difficult. Call us on (07) 3356 8801 today if you need help with pest control in Wilston.
With these easy measures, you might be able to keep bugs away from your living room. Find any leaks in your home and patch them up to make sure water isn't able to accumulate. 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. In the event that your home is still flooded with bugs, then it might be time to consider reaching out to a professional regarding pest control. Keep uninvited bugs and insects away from your home with these easy steps.
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. Get in touch with us on (07) 3356 8801 for any pest control in Wilston you need.
Once the pest control treatment is complete, for at least a week, you should avoid cleaning your home. Mess isn't something you should simply tolerate, naturally. 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. If you can avoid the temptation to clean away cobwebs, which our team uses to treat any spiders in your home, then you are welcome to clean your home before we arrive. Cleaning your home immediately following a pest control treatment can cause it to lose efficiency.
