DIY Termite Solutions? Don't kid yourself!

Thu 06 Dec 2018
The clients encountered by Conquer Termites Northside in their years as termite inspectors usually go through phases of emotions.

First, they get shocked. Seeing how much damage was caused by termites to certain parts of their home, not to mention the cost of getting it repaired (in some instances, more than $25,000!).

Then they panic. Quickly grabbing the bug spray and slaying hundreds of termites, an act of retribution perhaps.

Finally, regret. After discovering that the bug spray or other anti-termite remedies at home didn't actually work. More termites just replaced them every time, and there's no telling where they come from.

Even a full can of bug spray won't make much of an effect to the termite colony because of the fact that the Queen can produce more termites every day than the amount that bug sprays can eliminate. The chemicals from bug sprays can even harm others causing more problems.

These aggressive kinds of termites can either be the Coptotermes or the Schedorhiotermes. These are species that reproduce so rapidly and were spotted recently in suburbs of Brisbane's northside - most starkly, in the Gap, Ferny Grove, Everton Park and Albany Creek.

Termite operations work so efficiently following a simple system; find a water source, find a food source, and tear your way through everything you can to get the job done.

Eliminating a termite colony that is both efficient and relentless is not a DIY job. Expert termite inspectors from Conquer Termites Northside spent years mastering their craft, equipped with the best version of the termite inspection technology, and the wits to be paces ahead of any termite colony.
