Termite Inspections In Perth

Termites can remain concealed within a building or surrounding environment, meaning visible signs may not always be present during the early stages of activity.

Bees Knees Pest Management WA provides professional termite inspections for residential and commercial properties across Perth and surrounding suburbs.

A termite inspection assesses accessible areas of the building and surrounding property for evidence of termite activity, termite damage and conditions that may increase the risk of termite entry.

Depending on the construction and accessibility of the property, areas inspected may include:

• Interior areas

• Exterior building perimeter

• Accessible roof voids

• Accessible subfloor areas

• Timber structures

• Gardens and landscaping

• Fences and retaining timbers

• Areas around plumbing and moisture sources

• Existing termite management systems where accessible

• Other areas considered relevant during the inspection

Common Signs of Termites

Signs that may indicate termite activity can include:

• Mud or shelter tubes

• Damaged or hollow-sounding timber

• Changes to timber surfaces

• Termite workings within timber

• Winged termites or discarded wings

• Damage around door frames, skirting or other timber

• Unexplained changes to timber flooring or structures

• Live termites

Some termite activity may remain concealed and cannot be identified simply by looking around the home.

If You Find Termites

If you discover termites or suspected termite activity, avoid disturbing the area.

Do not spray the termites with household insecticide, break open workings or remove affected timber before the area has been assessed.

Disturbing termite activity can make it more difficult to determine what is occurring and may affect treatment options.

Where termites are identified, we'll discuss the findings and appropriate next steps based on the individual circumstances.

Regular Termite Inspections

Regular professional inspections can help identify termite activity and conditions that may increase the risk of termite problems.

The appropriate inspection frequency can depend on the property, construction, environmental conditions, previous termite history and existing termite protection.

Bees Knees Pest Management WA can provide recommendations based on the individual property and inspection findings.
