FREQUENTLY ASKED PEST CONTROL QUESTIONS
If you have any questions about pest control, we have provided answers to some frequently asked questions below:
How does living near Six Mile Creek affect termite risk?
Living near Six Mile Creek increases termite risk significantly. The ‘Quaternary alluvium’ and alluvial soils common in this area retain moisture, creating a damp environment that termites love. This proximity to water and nutrient-rich soil allows termite colonies to thrive and travel easily toward timber structures.
Are your treatments safe for the Lake Macdonald water catchment?
Yes, we are acutely aware of the water catchment sensitivity in Lake Macdonald. We use eco-friendly products and adhere to strict application zones to ensure that chemical treatments do not run off into waterways. Our technicians are trained to apply products in a manner that protects the local ecosystem.
When is the best time to treat for mosquitoes in the hinterland?
The best time to treat for mosquitoes is just before the wet season or before summer storms arrive. Treating early reduces breeding populations before the humidity and standing water levels rise, which otherwise leads to a population explosion near the lake and creek areas.
Are your pest control treatments safe for pets?
Absolutely. We use high-quality, low-toxicity preparations that are safe for cats, dogs, and other pets once dry. We recommend keeping pets away from the treated areas during application and until the product has dried, which usually takes a short time.
How should I prepare my home for a pest treatment?
To get the best results, we recommend clearing clutter from floor areas and covering any open food sources. Our team will provide specific instructions based on the service you book.
What happens if it rains after my treatment?
Most modern pest control products are designed to bind with surfaces quickly. However, if we are performing an external treatment and heavy rain is forecasted or occurs immediately, we may reschedule or re-treat the affected external areas to ensure the treatment remains effective.
