Termite damage can be a serious issue for homeowners and businesses, leading to costly repairs if not identified early.

Some key signs that may indicate the presence of termite damage in your home are:

𝗦𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗪𝗼𝗼𝗱𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸: If you notice any softness or give when you press on skirting boards, door frames, or window frames, it could be a sign that termites have compromised the structural integrity of the wood.

𝗠𝘂𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀: Termites often leave visible mud trails on external brickwork or walls as they travel. These trails are a clear indicator of termite activity.

𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: Mud staining on walls may occur if there is a termite nest within the wall cavity. This staining is often due to the termites' mud tunnels becoming visible through the wall material.

𝗗𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲𝘀: Doors that suddenly become tight and difficult to close may be expanding due to moisture from termite nests.

𝗨𝗻𝘂𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀: A less common but telling sign is a clicking sound coming from within walls. This noise is produced by termites as they chew through wood.

If you encounter any of these signs, it's crucial to contact a pest control professional immediately for an assessment and appropriate treatment options.

Hospitality venues often face increased risks when it comes to pests, simply because they usually have an abundance of varied food sources, both in food prep areas and waste disposal.

Here's the kicker: by the time you spot pests, chances are the infestation is already significant. That's why proactive measures are crucial.

Regular maintenance treatments are not just a precaution; they're a necessity to safeguard your business from the financial and reputational damage pests can cause.

So, let's stay ahead of the game and keep those pests at bay!

Leptospirosis is bacterial infection transmitted through contact with mouse or rat urine. Symptoms include fever, headache, muscle soreness, vomiting, and red eyes.

Unfortunately, this is sometimes brushed off as being a "tummy bug" or "virus" however if you or your family members are getting these symptoms on a regular basis, you may be coming into contact with rodent urine and not realise it.

Keep an eye out for other signs of rodents and consider having a pest inspection, just to be safe.

It's not that uncommon to find wood flooring being laid over the top of a concrete floor but this is a recipe for disaster!

This comes down to the fact that these floors are often laid without sufficient clearance, meaning that moisture gets trapped between the two floors and this is a termite buffet!

This also makes it hard for inspectors to pinpoint the cause of and treat an infestation, with access to these areas almost impossible. The end result being that the floor ultimately has to be ripped up and replaced with something more appropriate.

Termite proof or treated timber used in decorative wood flooring does not stop termite damage. The termites will not eat it but they will still use it as a mode of transport to get to other parts of the building and food sources.

So before you lay a new floor, speak to a pest control expert, like Pests Out WA to make sure you're not installing a ticking time bomb under your feet!

Using fly spray to get rid of bees and wasps is not a good idea for several reasons.

Fly spray may not be effective against bees and wasps, as they have different biology and behaviours than flies. It may only irritate or stun them, but not kill them.

These sprays harm beneficial insects, such as pollinators, that are essential for the environment and agriculture. They also contain chemicals that can cause allergic reactions, respiratory problems, or poisoning.

If you have a beehive or wasp nest on your property, you should engage the services of expert relocator. They will attend, remove, and relocate them to somewhere less dangerous for humans and more conducive to their very important role in the local environment.

Although they are much-loved members of our families, roaming cats pose a HUGE danger to our native wildlife, as well as to themselves.

Many cat owners think they need to let their cats roam free to be happy; however, this isn't the case. If you provide your feline family members with enough stimulation at home, they actually don't need to leave the comfort and safety of their home.

Roaming cats kill native wildlife and non-native wildlife alike. This means they may inadvertently eat baited rodents or pest species, as well as contract diseases from them. Cats inhabit almost all of Australia and continue to drive many native species toward extinction.

Roaming cats also run the risk of being injured by cars and other animals such as dogs or feral cats. With a lifespan of only two to five years compared to an indoor cat's 15-17 years, free-roaming felines are susceptible to a number of risks. These dangers range from contracting infectious diseases from other animals to picking up worms, fleas, and ticks.

Cats left to wander freely outside often get into nasty fights with other cats in the neighbourhood, which can lead to serious life-threatening injuries and illnesses, such as infected cuts and abscesses. They may also contract feline HIV.

Cat owners have an obligation to keep their cats indoors or enclosed at all times. If you're worried about your cats getting bored, consider installing an enclosure outside and providing them with plenty of toys and distractions.

Did you know that termite barriers can be physical or chemical?

A chemical barrier, well, that's exactly what it sounds like. A chemical treatment that either repels or exterminates termites. A physical barrier is a synthetic moisture barrier that building codes require all new builds to have.

Physical barriers can only be applied to new builds or extensions where access to the base of the structure is available. Chemical barriers are the ongoing treatments that all homeowners need to invest in to ensure their homes are protected from termites.

Regular inspections and preventative treatments are the best way to ensure your home doesn't become a meal ticket for these nasty little critters. Contact our team for a free quote today!
