Termites attack 1 in 3 homes in Greater Melbourne region

Recent industry surveys suggest that about one in three homes will suffer a termite infestation in the Greater Melbourne region. To make matters worse, home and building insurance does NOT cover damage caused by termites which may involve costly replacement of floor, wall and roofing timbers.

termites can build a sub-nest in a wall cavity of a home

Guess who's coming to dinner ? The Fumapest inspector examines an above ground termite nest built inside a wall cavity in the dining room of a home.

Subterranean termites can readily build such such above ground nests, where moisture collects in wall cavity - usually caused by of faulty plumbing, leaking pipes, guttering or shower recess.

Your best protection is to arrange for a Termite Inspection and Report to Australian Standard 3660, including written specifications for a complete Termidor soil barrier treatment (where practicable) to protect your home. Prevention is better than cure.

We recommend Termidor for all "active" termite problems

Termidor is the best available termite control chemical commercially available in Australia, offering long-term protection of more than 5 years. Termidor liquid termiticide is applied to the soil at the base and around the perimeter of a building to be protected.

Unlike other products Termidor is non-repellant termites tunneling in Termidor treated soil sticks to skin or ingest it. Termidor has a delayed lethal effect of a few days. Termites feed and groom each other, the entire colony can becomes infected and dies.

Why it's important to know ... about termites in Victoria

WARNING: Home insurance does NOT cover termite infestation and damage to structural and other timbers around a building. Termites can destroy roofing and wall framing timbers within a few months.

We recommend you read the Termites section of this web-site to help you assess which termite control method will best protect your property.

Alternative termite control methods aim at exploiting certain behavioural characteristics of termites in varying types of building situations.
