Gold Coast, Australia - May 11, 2021 /PressCable/ —
Autumn and winter are major pest seasons. While some pests are happy to hang around in their usual abode all year round, others put out their feelers to find a cosy, warm home once the temperature starts to dip.
Pests are often regarded purely as a summertime issue but in truth, homeowners are being forced to protect their homes and commercial spaces from pests at this time of the year and to have them removed before they can wreak havoc with a person’s health or cause property damage.
These are 3 of the most active and unwelcome intruders that are forcing Gold Coast homeowners to take greater Pest Control measures.
Termites (White Ants)
Termites remain active throughout the year even when the weather turns cooler and can cause significant damage to property. They have a penchant for timber and can obliterate foundations and internal timber structures.
Please remember that termites use mud tunnels (tubes), often no bigger than a pencil, to connect their colonies in the underground soil and while providing shelter, they’re also a means of moving around undetected. Termites also build their tunnels on interior walls and basement walls, usually near skirting boards.
Colonies of termites are going unnoticed and are being left untreated, increasing the number of worker termites and the level of damage they can cause. Homeowners are being forced to get a termite inspection at the earliest opportunity to control infestations or save money both on repairs and termite treatment.
German Cockroaches
German Cockroaches are lately a problem in many parts of Australia, causing health issues such as gastroenteritis and carrying diseases such as salmonella. They like to set up home in a place where there’s plenty of food and water and in the winter often go unnoticed as they find places to hide. Because they are prolific breeders in the winter months a small problem can quickly become a major problem.
German cockroaches are often found near waste bins, under sinks and at the back of cupboards. While store-bought insecticides will kill visible cockroaches, many more will escape detection, and sprays won’t prevent any eggs from hatching. The best way to get rid of them is always to call in a professional pest control service.
Rodents
Rodents like comfort and warmth in the cooler months – a bit like humans. Lately, rodents are finding their way into Gold Coast homes more frequently. Cavity walls, ceiling cavities and other warm dry places are becoming excellent nesting places for rodents.
Homeowners are finding electrical wiring, timber and cladding gnawed by rodents, posing the danger of gnawed electrical wiring leading to potential house fires across Gold Coast.
These are just 3 common pests that are recently most active in autumn and winter, but there are many more. Pest control inspections are being recommended to detect any signs of pests. Professional pest control treatment will get rid of unwelcome intruders and give residents back their homes.
