TERMITE INSPECTION COLLINGWOOD PARK 4301
Quite often it can be very easy to miss seeing the evidence of termites. This home at Collingwood Park is a case in point.
This narrow mud trail snaking up the wall is actually a transport corridor for termites.
Termites build these mud trails to keep cool and protect themselves from predators. They can safely travel from their nest to a new food source.
If you’re not au fait with the habits of termites, you perhaps wouldn’t think twice about this thin mud trail or not even notice it at all.
Alternatively, you may think to hose off the mud trail. This could be disastrous. When termites are disturbed they can disperse to multiple locations looking for new food sources. Unwittingly, you could exponentially spread the termite infestation and not even know.
That’s why it’s beneficial to have an experienced pest technician conduct a termite inspection.
Once the extent of the infestation is determined a treatment plan can be devised and then enacted.
Termites love wet timber. That’s why it’s vital to clear mulch or soil from the base of timber fence palings. Tree stumps not ground out and covered in soil or mulch can become an ideal food source for termites too.
