Trades & Labor Pest Control Company

The house we are renting is being attacked by termites..Kitchen cupboards are being eaten out......The owner is in Australia and is having trouble organising an inspection and treatment.......Has anyone on here used a pest control company here succesfully that they would use again?....

 

Really need to find someone who can locate and deal with the nest which can be hundreds of meters away from the house, a mates house back on Oz got chewed out really bad and they found the nest under a tree about 100m away from the house.

 

Interesting, I thought all came from nests like all of the ones I have seen back in Oz, I have read there are many many varieties and only a few attack houses, so these ones do not live in a nest under ground?

 

Well I just googled it, I did not realise there were 'dry' and 'damp' termites that attacked houses, I also 'assumed' that here would be safer due to the sandy ground, I thought part of creating a termite barrier was placing crushed granite (like very coarse sand) around the base of your foundations so assumed that the sandy nature of the ground here would deter the lil bugga's from finding a way in

 

We occasionally get plagues here of flying ants at night, which I assume are termites, many dropped wings on the ground under the outside lights in the morning and a sleepless night with them crawling all over you, luckily here all timber is exposed, but will be keeping an eye out for the plywood kitchen cabinets I built

 

Our landlord uses Truly Care, Undo Alcoreza 0906 537 9614 / 0916 325 5790, seems very professional, but probably not the cheapest.
