Pre – Construction Termite Control is the most effective way  to ensure a new property, renovation or extension is protected from the destructive termite species. Termites get their nutrition from Cellulose, an organic compound that is found in plants, cotton material, paper products and wood.

Termites attraction to properties is fed by the fact that no other predators are also feeding off the property, making your home the perfect meal. Termites cause over 1.5 Billion dollars’ worth of damages every year in Australia alone, they are often known as the ‘Silent Pest’.
