In the Cairns region there are one in two houses likely to be attacked by termites in its lifetime, and once a house has been attacked future attacks are more likely to happen if not treated correctly or in a suitable timeframe. Insect activity in the tropics is high, so regular pest treatments are recommended to keep your property pest free.
The first and most important part of termite management is having a trained and licensed technician perform an inspection of the property. Australian Standards 3660.2 recommends that termite inspections be performed at least annually and more often in high-risk areas.
Subterranean Termites travel underground and may enter a building below ground level, thus being concealed. Termites can use construction methods to stay concealed while seeking out and eating and damaging building timbers and materials.
Sometimes these timbers are structural elements and can render a building structurally unsound without you even knowing. You may accidentally find some Termite damage or activity in joinery timbers, cupboards or during renovations or even cleaning, but this may only be the tip of the iceberg.
