Key Pests in Birkdale
The 3 key pests in Tingalpa are:
Termites are active throughout the year in Birkdale due to the warm, humid climate, which makes the soil damp and warm – perfect conditions for termites. As they present a constant risk to properties, annual termite inspections are the best way to keep your home safe from termite attack.
Ants seem to be everywhere during the warmer months, particularly in summer. They can cause problems indoors and in outdoor areas too, with some species capable of digging up lawns or delivering a nasty bite. Fire ants are now a concern for homeowners as they continue to spread throughout Queensland. AllPro Pest Control offer specialist ant treatments for any situation, and our technicians are accredited to provide fire ant treatments to people’s homes and businesses. We are proud to be contributing towards limiting the spread of fire ants in our region.
Spiders are a common reason for customers to call us. Having a general pest treatment once a year, in spring, is an easy and effective way to keep spiders outdoors where they belong.
Termite Inspections and Termite Treatments - Birkdale
Termites are industrious insects and are actively tunnelling and building their nests all year round. They are constantly foraging for new sources of food (such as wood), which is why the threat level in Birkdale is always high. They can chew through structural timbers and floorboards in as little as 6 months!
Having a termite inspection every year is the first step towards minimising potential termite damage. One of AllPro Pest Control’s experienced termite inspectors will assess the property, looking for visual signs of termite activity and identifying areas where termites could gain access without being detected. Clear recommendations are made about how to better ‘termite proof’ the property.
If termites are discovered, then a number of termite treatments are available. A typically treatment might involve above-ground bait stations placed in areas of termite activity or in-ground treatments (placed directly into the soil).
The second step – and recommended for all homes – is the installation of a termite management system. The two most common are termite baiting systems and soil treatments. A baiting system involves installing termite bait stations at regular intervals around the property, while a soil treatment involves mixing a termiticide liquid with the soil around the perimeter of the building. Our team can advise on the most suitable type for your particular property. Having a termite management system installed is the only way to significantly reduce the risk of termite attack.
Birkdale - Interesting Facts, Weather and Pest Control Recommendations
Birkdale lies on the Redlands Coast, with Wellington Point to the east and Tingalpa Creek to the West.
The Quandamooka People are the traditional owners of the land, having lived in the area for many thousands of years before European settlement.
Birkdale is named after Birkdale House, the home of European settler James Baron who was a renowned winemaker. He was originally from Birkdale in Lancashire, UK. The area was officially named when the railway was built in 1889, following the tradition at the time of naming the railway station after local landmarks or well known properties.
Today the canal housing development of Aquatic Paradise together with Howeston Golf Course and several spacious parks gives the suburb a relaxed coastal vibe.
As announced by Redlands City Council in 2023, the Birkdale Community Precinct Master Plan will see 62 hectares of public space being given back to the community in the form of a modern adventure playground and a swimming lagoon over the next few years.
Birkdale’s humid subtropical climate means summers are hot and winters are mild. Storms and heavy downpours throughout the summer create warm, moist conditions that are ideal for pests. A general pest treatment is an easy way to keep pests to a minimum numbers in check but for termites, installing a termite protection system is the only way to sufficiently protect a home from attack.
