Most homeowners only require a general pest control treatment to keep their home free from common pests. Our pest treatment comes with a 6-month warranty, covering web-building spiders, large cockroaches, ants, silverfish and carpet beetles. We also offer a range of specialist pest control treatments for ant control, spider control, rodent control, wasp nests and German cockroaches.
When we carry out a termite inspection at the same time as a pest control treatment, in addition to the convenience of combining the two services, customers can get a small discount.
We also provide tailored commercial pest control services for a range of businesses and organisations in Rye. We tailor these pest control programs to meet the requirements of the business and the specific pest problems at their location. Often business require a regular service plan.
All governments and building authorities recommend that property owners (especially houses) should have an termite inspection at least once a year, as part of their termite management plan to protect a house. Even if you have a termite protection system in place, annual termite inspections are required to maintain any warranty. Our termite inspectors will pick up the presence of any termite activity or signs of termite damage on the property, and will also identify any conditions or issues that may make a termite attack more likely. The resulting recommendations are key to action, to ensure your home remains termite free.
At Termites VIC, we use the latest termite detection equipment to aid our experienced inspectors. This can help us detect areas of moisture and even termite movement behind walls. This ensures you receive a termite inspection report you can trust. The results of the inspection are documented in our multi-page report (with photos).
A termite treatment is essential to protect the building from concealed termite entry, which can result in significant damage. Termite treatments fall into two main types – soil treatments or termite baiting systems. The choice of treatment will often depend on the construction type of your home and soil conditions. At Termites VIC, we are accredited to use all the leading termite treatment products, which allows us to select the best termite treatment for your particular situation. We guarantee elimination of active termites from your building and can offer the $2 million Timber Assurance warranty with Termidor treatments. Please contact us for a FREE Quote.
As Rye is part of the Mornington Peninsula, which is a “termite declared” area, you must ensure the necessary termite protection measures are implemented during the construction of new homes. This also applies to extensions and some renovations. Typically, this includes installing termite protection products during construction. At Termites VIC we only use quality products – Kordon or Termseal – to ensure your home is protected for the long term. Call us for a FREE quote at the planning stage of your project.
Before you buy a property, you should always get a pest inspection, more accurately called a pre-purchase timber pest inspection. These inspections are different to a termite inspection, in that they also inspect for borers and timber decay. This provides essential information about whether these pests are present, whether there is any existing damage and whether there are conditions or issues that may cause problems in the future. This is essential information before making a purchase decision or bidding at an auction. We take time to carry out comprehensive inspections, so you have all the information to make an informed purchase decision. Call us today to book a pest inspection you can trust.
