We specialise in Termite (White Ant) Control, Protection and Barriers.
Houses in Runcorn face significant termite (white ant) threats.
On average, Conquer Termites would install a Termidor termite
treatment to a home in Runcorn once a week. It is hard to put an
exact figure on the number of homes that are being attacked and
damaged by termites/white ants in Runcorn, and we certainly aren’t
the only company installing termite barriers in Runcorn, but it
would be higher than most suburbs in Brisbane.
Reasons why we install termite protection programs in Runcorn
The housing stock was predominantly built 25 – 30 years ago. The construction method was mainly slab on the ground with the brick wall buried in the soil. This allows concealed termite entry. Also, most of the original termite treatments have expired.
As Runcorn is a more established area, so are the gardens. This means there will be old tree stumps that could be harbouring a termite nest in your garden or your neighbours. Old timber retaining walls are as much of a threat as tree stumps due to the amount of soil they hold back.
The high number of parklands that have a large number of native eucalyptus trees that might harbour pest/termite nests. This is especially so being so close to Wally Tate Park and the origins of Bulimba Creek.
