Termites:
A termite infestation could severely affect your home and cost you thousands in repair solutions. The most effective way to avoid a termite infestation is to treat your home with a liquid termiticide spray around the perimeter of your home. Another tip would be to remove all wood and cellulose-based debris from your yard and dispose of it correctly to avoid creating the perfect environment to house termites. For full protection against termites and to prevent damage to your home, ensure that you get annual termite inspections conducted once a year, especially if you live in an area with high-risk of termites.
If you believe your home may be at risk of a termite infestation, call us now and we’ll come out and implement our 4 step plan for termite treatment.
Spiders:
If you, like many people, are NOT a fan of spiders in any form, or are cautious towards them, and want to protect your family from redbacks, huntsmans, jumping spiders, wolf spiders and funnel-web spiders, then you are not alone. Spiders are a recognised pest across Australia and are home to some of the deadliest spiders in the world. Many natural remedies repel spiders away such as peppermint, white vinegar, citrus and lavender. Having a household pet, such as a cat is also an excellent spider repellant. However, the best way to rid spiders would be to call a professional out to eliminate and prevent spiders returning.
Don’t take the risk, if you have a spider problem and want to protect your children and pets from spiders, give us a call and your home will be treated for common Brisbane spider species and protected under our 3-month spider-free warranty!
Fleas:
Fleas can be a pain for everyone in the home, especially if a flea outbreak occurs. Fleas are the rabbits of the insect kingdom and can literally overrun your home if you do not tackle them in time. The best prevention methods to avoid fleas include vacuuming your carpet, furniture and areas where your pets roam on a daily basis. Your vacuum cleaner is your weapon of choice when preventing a flea infestation. Another prevention method is to use flea spray, flea bombs or flea traps. However, if the issue is severe, the best method is to call a professional flea exterminator.
Our team of highly trained professional staff will provide an expert solution which will successfully treat your home for fleas.
Silverfish:
Silverfish are a downright nuisance and cause many headaches if an outbreak occurs in your home. A little about silverfish, they thrive in humidity, and their excrements destroy clothes, books, wallpaper and paper. Mainly they survive off a diet of carbohydrates. The best way to prevent an outbreak of silverfish is to keep your house dehumidified, vacuum your house often, repair any cracks or crevices in your home where they can lay eggs, keep all food sealed and any paper in a dry, sunny area. Try using natural remedies such as boric acid or store-bought repellents and insecticides to try and rid the infestation.
Sometimes, a silverfish outbreak can riddle your house and destroy many items within your home. If all else fails and you cannot deal with another hole in your favourite shirt, call us now, and we will have an expert team member rid your home of silverfish using our extensively tested and safe insecticidal dust.
Ants:
Sometimes, it can feel like keeping ants at bay is an impossible task. Their tiny bodies can fit through the smallest cracks and enter your home from almost everywhere. Ants are always on the hunt for food, so a very obvious prevention method to avoid ants from invading your home is to ensure all food is covered and tightly sealed in storage jars or containers. Some natural insecticides keep ants away such as cinnamon, white vinegar, lemon and peppermint, but sometimes even those methods can’t keep the little pesky intruders out.
In some cases, ants can be very difficult to get rid of and depending on the degree of the infestation, may require our team of professionals to provide a range of ant pest control methods to resolve the outbreak of ants in your home.
Rodents:
A rodent infestation can cause damage to your home and bring in unwanted diseases. Rodents are a result of the incorrect disposal of food scraps or improper food storage. A preliminary way to mouse proof your house is to ensure your bins are shut tight and emptied regularly. Keep your home free of rubbish and food scraps, ensure your yard is clean and all storage areas are tidy. Do not compost any animal products and cover your rainwater tanks with wire mesh to ensure no rodents fall into your tanks and contaminate your water supply.
Rodents are scavengers and can still sometimes persist to be a problem, especially if you live on a large property, own multiple animals and store their food outdoors. If you have a rodent infestation, the best solution would be to call us immediately, and a professional exterminator will conduct a full inspection alongside sanitation and hygiene procedures to ensure your home and family are safeguarded from diseases.
Our team of highly knowledgeable and trained staff will carry out an in-depth rodent control solution using baiting methods to eliminate and prevent future rodent intrusions.
Cockroaches:
Cockroaches are by far one of the most disease-ridden pests and can carry diseases that might be harmful to your family. Preventing a cockroach outbreak is easier than fixing an infestation. Cockroaches reside in the dark and love humid and warm crevices. To avert a cockroach outbreak, ensure you have a clean and tidy house at all times. Keep cockroach baits in areas which involve food and water, move yard trimmings and debris off your property to prevent them from hiding and inhibiting in piles of yard waste and create a barrier around the outside of your property by using pesticides to prevent the critters entering inside your home. Cockroaches can be very hard to eliminate once an infestation has incurred and professional cockroach control and treatment may be required to be called upon to eradicate the outbreak.
