Termites and White Ants | Termites are one of the most destructive timber pests in Australia and can be responsible for large amounts of structural damage to buildings and timbers throughout yard areas. If you think you have termites in your house or yard we suggest you have a Timber Pest Inspection carried out to check for evidence of old and live termite activity. This must be carried out by a licenced technician who will also inspect for areas conducive to termite attack. You will receive a nine page report in accordance with Australian Standards and a quote will also be included to apply a full chemical barrier to the building to assist in the prevention of termite infestation. A timber pest inspection will not stop termite activity but will help locate any live termite damage. The sooner termite damage is detected and treated the less structural damage is likely to occur. Call our office to discuss your termite concerns and treatment options. |

Black and Brown Ants | There are over 3000 species of ants in Australia with many of those species living in the Esperance area. You may have noticed small soil mounds around your home in the garden, near paving, between brick work and around pot plants. Ants generally don’t cause large amounts of damage but they can form nests under the ground which may result in the top layer of soil becoming unstable. To effectively treat the ants the technician will need to firstly determine what and how many species of ants are on your property and then work out a complete treatment plan to reduce ant colonies around your property. Treatment methods will depend on the feeding and foraging habits of the ant species and may involve the use of non-repellent and repellent insecticides as well as different chemicals such as a gel or granular type product. Ant remedies bought at supermarkets and hardware stores are not adequate to effectively treat ant infestations in the Esperance area. Although we do not offer a formal warranty on black ant treatments you will certainly notice a huge decrease in numbers with total elimination often achieved.

Birds & Pigeons | Pigeons can carry and spread many different diseases harmful to humans including toxoplasmosis, encephalitis, histoplasmosis and salmonella.
