Fire ants are pretty clever when it comes to survival!

During heavy rain and rising water, fire ants can link their bodies together to form floating rafts, helping protect their queen, young and the rest of the colony until they reach safer ground.

With all the recent wet weather across Southeast Queensland, now is a great time to check your property for new fire ant nests or unusual activity.

Fire ants can establish new nests as conditions improve, so keep an eye out around lawns, gardens and other outdoor areas.

⚠️ If you suspect fire ant activity, avoid disturbing the nest and contact our experienced team at Checkmate Pest Control for advice & treatment options.

With all the wet weather we've been experiencing, it's important to remember that termites don't take a break when it rains!

Subterranean termites rely on moisture to survive, and prolonged rainfall can create favourable conditions for termite activity around your property.

Damp timber, saturated soil, poor drainage and excess moisture can all contribute to an environment where termites thrive.

But here's something worth knowing! Termites can remain active all year round, often hidden beneath the ground or inside timber, without leaving any obvious signs.

That's why regular termite inspections are so important. Our experienced team uses advanced termite detection technology to help identify activity and potential areas of concern before significant damage occurs.

Noticed something unusual around your property? Checkmate Pest Control are always happy to help!

🌧️ Rain, Rain, Go Away… But What About Your Pest Treatment? 🐜🕷️

One of the questions we often get during wet weather is, “Will the rain wash away my pest control treatment?”

At Checkmate Pest Control, we use professional pest control products that incorporate polymer technology, designed to help the treatment adhere to treated surfaces and improve its resistance to rainfall once dry.

This means a little rain doesn't necessarily mean your pest treatment has gone to waste!

Of course, weather conditions, the surfaces being treated and the timing of rainfall can all influence the effectiveness of a treatment.

Our experienced technicians assess the conditions to ensure we're applying the right products at the right time.

🌧️ Because a little wet weather shouldn't leave you wondering whether your property is protected!

With the stormy weather, rain and humidity around Southeast Queensland, you might start noticing swarms of flying insects gathering around outdoor lights, windows or even inside your home.

But did you know these could be alates?

Alates are the winged reproductive members of termite and ant colonies. When conditions are right, they take flight in search of a mate and a suitable location to establish a new colony.

🌧️ Warm, humid conditions, particularly around storms and rainfall, can trigger these swarming events.

So, how do you know if you're seeing flying ants or termites?

While they can look similar, there are some key differences, and identifying them correctly is important.

Finding termite alates around your property doesn't necessarily mean you have an active termite infestation, but it's certainly worth investigating, especially if they're emerging from inside your home.

Not sure what you've spotted? Take a photo and send it through to our team! We're always happy to help identify what you're seeing and advise whether a closer inspection is needed.
