There are signs of termites that stand out to an experienced inspector. They know where to look and what to look for. Experience means a great deal in this industry because the cost of overlooking termite incursion can swiftly add up to tens of thousands. With Richard you're using an inspector with decades of experience and proven track record.
IS MY HOME AT RISK?
We find termite activity in almost every property we inspect. We often find termite activity in homes that were recently inspected by someone else. Our experience is that termite activity in Gold Coast homes is almost ubiquitous.
Each year, termites cost Australian’s about $4 billion. With an average cost of about $10,000 and the fact that most home insurance doesn’t cover termite damage, you should consider your home to be at risk of termites.

The Two Step Termite Control Process
STEP ONE: THE TERMITE INSPECTION
If you’re worried about termites then you should start with a termite inspection. That way you start your termite control with full knowledge of what you’re up against. We’ll examine the structure of your home, the location, environmental factors, find any past or present termite activity, and only then will we recommend a course of action. This way you get the best and most cost effective termite treatment.
Richard will share his vast knowledge with you. giving you tips to help control the risk factors around you home.
You’ll also get a full written inspection report.
STEP TWO: TRELONA TERMITE TREATMENT
The best form of treatment is the Advanced Termite Barrier System from Trelona. Using this system, we place a series of bait stations around your home. These bait stations are filled with bait that is irresistible to termites. Also deadly. By placing them every 3 metres we give the termites no opportunity to get to your home without first tasting this bait. And once they’ve tasted the bait, they’re not interested in going any further.
Once the termites eat the bait they return to the termite nest, spreading the poison to the other termites, including the queen. This results in colony collapse. Some other termite systems rely on pouring chemicals into the soil around your home. This termite system doesn’t attract termites away from your home, doesn’t result in colony collapse, and doesn’t remove the threat.
WORSE THAN FIRE, FLOOD AND STORMS
Across Australia, an estimated $4 billion damage is caused to homes by termite damage every year. It’s a fact: termites cause more damage to homes in Australia than fire, floods and storms combined. The cost of professional treatment, trades and building materials quickly adds up. And the worst part? Your home or building insurance doesn’t cover it! If you’ve been affected, find out how Gold Coast Pest Inspector can help.
