We specialise in Termite (White Ant) Protection, Detection, and Treatment Plans.
Houses in Rochedale face significant termite (white ant)
threats. On average, Conquer Termites would install a
termite treatment to a home in Rochedale every two weeks.
It is hard to put an exact figure on the number of homes
that are being attacked and damaged by termites/pest in
Rochedale, and we certainly aren’t the only company installing
termite treatments in Rochedale, but it would be higher than
most suburbs in Brisbane.
Reasons why we install termite barriers in Rochedale
The housing stock was predominantly built 25 – 30 years ago. The construction method was mainly slab on the ground with the external brick wall base embedded in the soil (see photo). Some footings can be 3-4 bricks under the soil. This allows concealed termite or white ant entry. Also, most of the original termite protection programs have expired.
As Rochedale is a more established area, so is the landscaping. This means there will be old tree stumps that could be harbouring a white ant nest in your garden or your neighbours.
The high percentage of parklands that have a large number of native eucalyptus trees that normally harbour pest/white ant nests. This is especially so being so close to Rochedale Park and the origins of Bulimba Creek.
