For most homeowners, having a general pest treatment once a year does the job and will keep pests away. Of course, termites are never far away – which is why governments and building authorities recommend that every home is inspected for termite activity at least once a year.
Rather than having the two pest control services carried out separately, many homeowners combine a general pest treatment with their annual termite inspection to save time and money.
Key Pests in Springwood
The 3 key pests in Springwood are:
- Termites
- Ants
- Spiders
(Of course cockroaches are problem for everyone!)
Termites are active all year round in Springwood due to the warm, humid conditions. As they are an ever-present risk to properties, annual termite inspections are the best way to keep your home safe from termite attack.
Ants are a common nuisance pest, causing problems both indoors and out. Warmer weather will often see ants trailing through the house or even worse, digging up areas of the lawn! Our funnel ant treatments and general ant treatments deal with the wide range of pest ants that are present in the Springwood area.
Spiders usually top the list for the pest homeowners want gone, and quickly. Homeowners whose properties are close to Springwood Park or Daisy Hill Park may find that spiders are more of an issue. This is easily dealt with by having a general pest treatment once a year, in spring.
Termite Inspections and Termite Treatments - Springwood
Termites are active throughout the year in Springwood and can cause damage to a property in as little as 6 months. The warm temperature and humid climate are perfect conditions for termites – bad news for homeowners.
Installing a termite management system is the best way to protect a home. A number of termite treatment options are available, including liquid soil treatments that are injected into the soil around the home or termite baits that are installed in secure bait stations.
Without a termite management system in place, an annual termite inspection is a must, with twice yearly inspections strongly recommended.
Springwood - Interesting facts, weather and pest control recommendations
In 1965, a freeway was proposed to connect Brisbane to the Pacific Highway at Eight Mile Plains. The freeway was supposed to built by 1970 but was not actually completed until 1985, 15 years late! The residential development continued despite the delays to the freeway, with schools, a hotel and two shopping centres opening up to service the new community. Today, Springwood is a well developed residential area with 17 parks in an area of just 6 km².
Springwood has a typical sub-tropical climate with wet summers and warm winters, making it the perfect home for all kinds of pests. Having a general pest treatment once a year (typically in spring) will keep most pests at bay. Termites, however, require higher level of vigilance due to the bushland and parks in the area. Ideally, a termite management system should be installed at the home otherwise termite inspections once or twice a year will be necessary to keep termites out.
