We love our Pertth homes! But so do the critters... Having a nice level home is one thing, but what's really happening underneath? It has been said that most Perth homes are under attack by termites in some form, and we spend small fortunes on nasty expensive chemical barriers to kill and deter them. And we all know that termites love timber! Sadly, poorly maintained timber house posts are a haven for these nasty little pests and one of the best methods of preventing termite damage, without the chemical warfare, is to make your home "termite un-friendly". Termites are attracted to timber, particularly timber that is water logged and damp, or surrounded by debris. If your stumps are in poor condition then termites could literally be eating your house out from under you. Correct the damage now and prevent a termite colony from invading your home.
