The only way to know if you have a termite infestation in your home is to do a termite inspection in Melbourne. If we do a full pest inspection, that will indicate how far they have eaten into your timber.
Do not be fooled when buying a new house that has had a fresh coat of paint and where the termite damage has been patched up. We can indicate within minutes if the house has been infected or been treated in the past.
Live termites damage homes beyond repair. And can devastate family property and leave homeowners with an expense for damages that many can’t afford to fix, so seek some professional advice from an expert in Melbourne.
Dry wood termites feed on wooden buildings and develop colonies. They inhabit hollow walls. After a colony has tunnelled so deeply into a wooden item that the outer cracks and mud-like tunnels underneath become visible, dry wood termite infestation may become likely. This scenario can happen on new flooring, plaster walls, or timber cladding. Contact a fast termite treatment in Melbourne to discuss the severity of your problem and eradication costs.
Indeed, termites really don't like to eat drywall "plaster" or paint. They do, however, like the outside paper and glue that covers the plasterboard. This is particularly true when the wall becomes wet due to flooding. When the wall becomes moist, the paper soaks up water and draws them in. Termites will tunnel between the plaster, paint surface, and drywall, damaging the wall as they move crosswise.
That's correct; termites typically chew with their mouths wide open, a behaviour they engage in continuously throughout the day, without ever sleeping. When accelerated by positive vibrations, termites get louder and more destructive with their chewing, which sounds like a clicking noise or someone taping on the wall all day long. If you place your ear against the wall and hear a consistent tapping sound, it's time for a termite inspection.
Termites are living bugs that eat and discharge, and their droppings, which we call Frass, feature wood-coloured pellets. If you do find these small droppings in your house, we recommend calling us for an inspection.
The most obvious sign you have a termite infestation is the small insects flying in or around your house. A little may not guarantee a colony of termites eating away at your home’s infrastructure, but frequent sightings can call in a professional, especially since they rarely fly far from their nest.
Similarly to the bubbling paint, moisture from termites can cause wood frames to expand. If you’re struggling to open a door and window in your home, termites may be the cause.
Bubbling paint indicates a water problem, and termites produce moisture when tunnelling and eating. Look around for peeling paint on wood panels, which can be a sign of a termite infestation.
Termites live beneath the ground, making tunnels to sources of food. These mud tubes leave uneven patterns made from mud-like tubes on your house walls. They are hard to find, but they are under your house or in your cavity wall.
Termites live off of the least amount of moisture produced in the timber, and when they release droppings, they remove as much moisture from it as is available and emerge with hard, pellet-like faeces. To control a clean counter, termites create holes to kick out their misuses. Termites, now visible on your window ledge, are a clear indication of their presence in your Melbourne home.
Young female and male termites produce waste from their nests to clone themselves, dropping their wings in the process. Swarmers fly away to start new termite colonies, including in your homes, during the generating stages. They have white/see-through wings and can identify a termite problem early if you find them in your home.
