Protecting what matters most.
Annual inspections, active termite baiting and expert nest treatment, everything you need to know to keep your home protected.
Servicing Brisbane & the Gold Coast
The annual termite inspection.
Termites work silently inside walls, sub-floors and roof voids. A regular, professional inspection is the single best way to catch activity early, before it becomes costly damage.
Non-invasive, technology-led inspections
We use the Termatrac iTraker Pro, a professional detection tool that combines radar, moisture and temperature sensing with thermal imaging. It lets us check behind walls and surfaces with no cutting, drilling or damage to your home.
Australian Standard AS 3660.2 recommends a professional termite inspection at least once a year, and more often in higher-risk areas.
- Radar to detect movement behind walls
- Moisture sensing to find leaks and damp conditions termites love
- Thermal imaging and temperature probe for hidden heat anomalies
- Official report with findings and recommendations
- If treatment is needed, the inspection cost is deducted from your quote
Termite activity is rarely visible from the surface, and Brisbane’s warm, humid climate means termites are active year-round. An annual report gives you an early warning, a record of your home’s condition, and the chance to fix conducive conditions (leaks, timber in contact with soil, blocked weep holes) before they invite trouble.
Why termite protection matters.
Termites are one of the most common and costly risks facing Queensland homes, and damage is often well underway before it’s ever seen.
Australia has one of the highest termite risks in the world
1 in 3 Queensland houses will experience termite activity. Colonies work silently inside walls, sub-floors and roof voids.
Most insurance companies don’t cover termite damage
Most home insurance policies exclude termite damage because it’s considered preventable through regular inspections and maintenance.
Damage occurs long before it’s visible
Termites feed deep inside timber, walls and sub-floors. By the time signs appear, significant structural damage may already have occurred.
Prevention is dramatically cheaper than repairs
Regular inspections and protection cost a fraction of repairing termite damage, which can involve structural timber replacement.
Protection without the drilling.
Our active termite baiting system targets the colony itself, the same goal as a traditional chemical barrier, with no drilling, no trenching and minimal impact on your home and garden.
Discreet, low-profile Trelona ATBS bait stations are installed in the soil around your home, roughly 3 metres apart.
Each station is pre-loaded with a highly palatable bait, so protection is active from day one.
Foraging termites find the stations, feed, and carry the bait back to share with the rest of the colony.
The active ingredient disrupts the termites’ ability to moult, so the colony declines over time and is progressively eliminated.
No drilling. No trenching.
Stations are installed with minimal disturbance, no cracked tiles or concrete, no drill holes, and your garden stays intact.
Lower installation cost
Baiting is a gentler option on your initial budget, and installation is generally quicker than a full chemical barrier.
We’re there to check up
Your stations are monitored by our technicians at regular intervals, so you have ongoing support and someone watching for activity.
Effective in any soil
Baiting works regardless of soil condition, making it excellent for older homes and difficult sites.
Targets the whole colony
Because termites share the bait, it works at the source, not just at the edge of your home.
Pairs with inspections
Your annual non-invasive inspection and bait station checks work together for complete visibility.
Baiting vs. drilling & trenching
Both approaches aim to eliminate termites at the colony. The difference is how much they ask of your property.
| Active baiting | Traditional chemical barrier | |
|---|---|---|
| Drilling & trenching | None | Required around the home |
| Impact on home & garden | Minimal | Possible cracking of tiles/concrete; soil disturbance |
| Installation cost | Lower upfront investment | Higher upfront investment |
| Installation time | Generally quicker | Can take up to a full day or more |
| Soil conditions | Effective in any soil | Reliant on soil condition |
| Ongoing support | Regular station checks by our team | Annual inspection |
| Best suited to | Most homes, older homes & difficult sites | Selected new builds |
Baiting gives you colony-level protection that’s gentle on your home and your budget, backed by a team that keeps checking in. Not sure which suits your property? Book an inspection and we’ll recommend the right approach based on your report.
Nest & mound treatment.
If your inspection uncovers a nest or mound on or near your property, we can treat it directly.
Treating the source
Termite nests can sit in trees, stumps, soil, mounds or even within structures. We locate the source and treat it with a professional-grade product that is highly effective at eliminating the colony, helping stop the threat to your home at its origin.
- Nest and mound locating during your inspection
- Direct treatment of the colony at the source
- Advice on conditions that attracted the colony
Reticulation line top-ups.
If your home has a termite reticulation system, we can top it up to keep your protection current, without drilling or trenching.
Keep your protection topped up
A reticulation system is a network of pipes installed around the perimeter of your home, designed so a termite treatment can be delivered into the soil without digging up your garden or drilling through paving and concrete.
Over time, the treated zone needs replenishing. A top-up through your existing lines restores your protection quickly and with minimal disturbance.
- Uses your existing reticulation lines
- Minimal disturbance to your home and garden
- Quick, professional application by licensed technicians
- Not sure if you have a system or when it’s due? Give us a call
Got a question? We’ve got you.
Most termite activity is hidden inside walls, sub-floors and roof voids. Australian Standard AS 3660.2 recommends professional inspections at least annually, and more often in higher-risk areas. Annual inspections catch activity early, identify conditions that attract termites, and give you a written record of your home’s condition.
A licensed technician carries out a non-invasive inspection of the interior, roof void, sub-floor (where accessible) and exterior using the Termatrac iTraker Pro, which combines radar, moisture and temperature sensing with thermal imaging. There’s no cutting or drilling. You receive a written report of the findings.
Your report is valid for 12 months, after which we recommend a follow-up inspection to keep your protection current.
Most Australian home insurance policies exclude termite damage, so repair costs usually fall to the homeowner. That’s why regular inspections and protection matter.
No termite management system can guarantee termites will never attempt to enter a property. The aim is to significantly reduce the risk, detect issues early, and treat the termites and their colony efficiently.
Bait stations are installed in the soil around your home, pre-loaded with a palatable bait. Foraging termites feed on it and share it with the colony. The active ingredient stops termites from moulting, so the colony declines and is progressively eliminated.
No drilling or trenching is needed. Stations sit in small holes in the soil around your home, so there’s minimal disturbance to paving, concrete and garden beds.
Baiting is effective for most properties and in any soil condition. Our technicians can advise based on your inspection report, just give us a call on 0483 936 370.
Our team monitors your stations regularly. The frequency depends on the risk to your property, it may be bi-annual, quarterly or more, and your technician will advise what’s right for your home.
Yes. When installed by licensed professionals in accordance with label directions, the bait sits inside sealed, in-ground stations designed for use around residential properties.
