The Pest Inspection

The Timber Pest Inspection is a careful and thorough inspection of the property with a focus upon identifying and reporting on evidence of Timber Pest Activity, Conditions Conducive to Timber Pests, Evidence of Pest Management Systems, and Risk Management Options.

Pest control is an important aspect of maintaining a pest-free environment. Whether you are running a commercial business or living in your own home in Gold Coast, pest control is essential for protecting your property and belongings from damage caused by pests like termites, rodents, and insects.

To ensure effective pest control, it is important to regularly inspect your property for signs of pest activity. This can involve looking for droppings, damaged wood or other materials, holes in walls or floors, or any other indicators that pests may be present on your property. Additionally, it is important to work with a reliable pest control company to implement preventive measures like pest traps or baits that will help keep pests away from your property.

We conduct an examination of timber and other accessible materials or areas susceptible to attack by timber pests including:

  • Structural timbers in the load bearing framework of the building including bearers, joists and rafters.
  • Joinery including finishes to the building such as moulding, architraves, skirtings, doors, windows and cupboards.
  • Wood and wood products in outdoor areas such as landscaping timbers, fences, logs, pool surrounds, garden boxes and tubs, firewood, paving blocks, sleepers, tree stumps and trees.
  • Surface work to foundation soils, walls and services.
  • Any other visible susceptible timber materials such as bridges, pergolas, stored items containing cellulose, builder’s debris & formwork.

 

 

Is pest control worth it?

We Perform Tests (Where Appropriate) Including:

  • Sounding - using a tapper to identify timber elements which sound hollow.
  • Probing - using a probe to identify a timber made soft by decay, termites, delignification or borers.
  • Electronic Moisture Detecting Meter - used to identify excessive moisture created by termites or conversely, creating a condition conductive to timber pests.
