Termites, Ants and Creepy Crawlies – How to Get Rid of Pests

Termites, ants, and other creepy crawlies may be small, but the damage they cause can cost you a lot. And most of the time, pest damage is not covered by insurance. It’s important to address a pest issue as soon as you realise you have one. But even better than that? Prevention. Here are some tips on how to get rid of pests, and prevent more in the future.

Termite Treatment.

Termites are a nasty pest problem to have. Even something as simple as not cleaning out your gutters can cause a termite infestation. But the good news is, they can be treated. Jim’s Pest Control experts use several methods depending on the best treatment for your situation. This could include pesticide barriers, dusts, or baits specially formulated for termite control. Our licensed technicians will install these safely in your home, so that you can feel confident your unwelcome guests won’t want to stick around.

Ant Treatment.

Ants are attracted to water, damp places, and food – especially if it’s sweet. This means your kitchen or bathrooms can be ideal places for ants to invade. If you’ve suddenly found a colony of ants has set up camp in your house, Jim’s Pest Control experts will show them the door! Our pest control technicians will carry out an inspection and report first, to work out the best option for treatment. Then using specially licensed bait, which is safe for kids and pets, our experts will apply this to the problem areas. Dust and specially formulated surface sprays can also be used to aid in preventing ant problems in the future.

Preventing Creepy Crawlies.

The best way to manage pests is to take measures to prevent them in the first place. This can be as simple as not leaving food out, wiping down surfaces regularly, and maintaining a clean house. Making sure food is sealed properly will help prevent ants, cockroaches, rats, and other pests. And, don’t forget, keeping an eye on any leaks or water damage may help prevent a termite infestation.
