We focus in particular on the roof void and sub-floor areas of your home, this is where the major infestations and harbourage areas are.

Some of these factors are commercial business, major shopping centres, bush land, parks and recreational centres. These areas provide excellent a food and water source. Rats and mice live in close proximity to humans and are the perfect scavenger. They move into our homes largely the roof or subfloor areas.

Baiting is not the only way to control rats and mice. Please contact exipest pest control north shore Sydney for treatment and advice. There are several ways a home owner can reduce the likely hood of rodents entering the building.

Flea treatments in Lane Cove

When have a pet, you’ll know that as the weather warms up your pet gets fleas. It doesn’t take long for the problem to spread to your yard and to the interior of your house. If you are experiencing flea bites, it’s time to get control of the situation, before it gets out of control. Female fleas lay hundreds of eggs in their life time. Most of these eggs are laid on the host animal, but some fall off into the animals bedding and sleeping areas. Before you have your house treated for fleas give it a thorough vacuum. This helps, by sucking up some of the flea eggs out of the carpet and floor board gaps. Washing of all animal bedding is a must and have your animal washed with an approved flea wash. We blanket spray all floor coverings with an approved environmentally friendly chemical that contains an insect growth regulator to stop the breading. If you are experiencing fleas in the yard spraying the yard is also good practice. Due to the types of flea problems and size of premises contact us for a quote.

Termite inspections Lane Cove

Due to being surrounded by the bush, and a leafy location with large parks, the Lane Cove National Park, Garigal National Park and lots of large gum trees, Lane Cove and surrounding suburbs are at a significantly higher risk of termite attack. The Australian standards recommend termite inspections to buildings, not exceeding 12 months, some properties regarded as extremely high risk should be inspected more regularly. The best thing any home owner or investor can do is have a yearly termite inspection. This will not stop a building from being attacked by termites, but will let you catch the problem before you have a large amount of structural damage. This will reduce the cost of building repairs.  These reports also define areas that are of high risk i.e.; damp areas, low subfloor ventilation, low inaccessible subfloor areas, timber on ground, breach of barriers, previous termite damage and recommendations.
A termite inspection consists of non-invasive inspection of the interior of the structure, the roof void, subfloor and grounds surrounding the structure, including land scaping timbers, trees, stumps and posts and takes between 1.5 and 2 hours to complete. You will receive a typed report shortly after inspection.
 

Termite treatments Lane Cove

Trees get affected by termites too, and sometimes have colonies in side them or on them. The termites can track their way below the ground through the water table to your house, undetected. You can and should treat trees for termites. Termite infestations in trees left untreated can kill the tree, create dying branches that fall and damage property or injure persons, create excessive rot or fungal decay.  Treating tree’s for termites does not adversely affect the tree or kill it.

Subfloor ventilation Lane Cove

Subfloor ventilation issues in houses can create the ideal environment for termite attack, create mould issues inside the house due to high humidity and be the cause of subfloor timber decay and the warping of cupping of floor boards. There’s a few ways to resolve the issue, by installation of high-flow air vents to the exterior of foundation walls to increase the air flow below the floor and in the case where there is no other way to create air flow in to sections of the sub-floor the installation of ducted sub-floor fans to transport the fresh air from the outside of the structure to the area.
