Here is a list of things you can do to help reduce the risk of a termite attack to your most valuable asset, your home.
- Remove dead tree stumps and timber debris from your yard.
- Don’t let climbing plants or bushy shrubs grow against your home.
- Use treated timber as garden beds and in the yard.
- Make sure the storm water on your property is secure and connected.
- Repair leaking taps and pipes.
- Make sure stored timbers are elevated up off the ground.
- All vents to sub-floor spaces should never be blocked by the garden.
- Divert hot water piping away from the side of the house; this includes air conditioning over-flows.
- Ensure the chemical termite barrier installed isn’t damaged or removed by plants or planting.
- Ensure physical barriers are visible and not covered, i.e. ant cappings.
- For all timber palings and timber attachments to the home you should maintain a 50 mm clearance between the wood and soil below.
- Book in an annual timber pest inspection with Precision Pest Control.
