As summer starts to heat up you will find that fleas will be jumping all over the place.
Identifying a flea infestation can often be simple, while eradicating their population proves much more difficult. Observe your pet's behaviour as a first step: if your pet is scratching excessively, you should examine his or her fur. Infested animals have reddened skin and may lose hair. The hind quarters of dogs and the head and neck of cats are most commonly targeted.
Are you looking for peace of mind and having your termite damage covered by an insurance policy.
Don't be surprised to find that your current building insurance does not cover you for structural damage caused by termites. It's a big worry especially considering that Australia has the most destructive termites in the world. The one way to put your mind at ease is to protect your home and finances before disaster strikes.
A recent survey shows that 1 in every 3 homes is attacked by termites at some stage in its life. But, while your home is insured against damage by fire, you’ll almost certainly find that your home insurance policy excludes termite damage. No other plan will give you this level of financial security.

Kings and queens, the most commonly known forms of reproductive termites, produce highly complex underground societies.
Termites are among the most captivating of all insects because of their fascinating societies. Humans choose to build structures out of termite food, and we have a hard time viewing them as anything but disturbing pests when they dine on those structures. But beyond their diet and its interference with our own society, the intrigue of a termite society is remarkable. Understanding the organisation and reproductive biology of termite colonies gives us insights into control strategies and realities and allows us to better cure your problem.

Ants
In Australia there are over 3000 species of ants. Ants are social insects that live in a permanent nests and are considered as one of the most successful of insects. Their colony sizes vary and they mostly reside in soil, wood or among rocks. But they are more commonly found around foundations and in walls, kitchens, roof voids, lawns and gardens, wood of decaying trees and rockeries.
They have clearly defined body parts being the head, thorax and abdomen. The head carries compound eyes.
Ants are becoming a major problem. They can cause damage to furnishings, curtains and carpets from the debris from their workings and nests causing staining.
They can also spoil foodstuffs by entering packaging or feeding off uncovered foods.
Externally they can cause problems by undermining concreted paved and grass areas causing sections to collapse and some species cause distress from their bites.
Treatment Methods Available:
Liquid sprays, dusts, granular baits and gels are all useful in treating problems. Monitoring and continual treatment may be an option where a major problem exists.
