If you try selling your home with an active colony of termites, then the final sale will not be as lucrative as your home deserves. It can be difficult to get the full value of your home in a sale when the new owner is going to need to immediately spend a significant amount of money treating an existing problem. To the joy of homeowners everywhere, however, just because you have suffered termite damage in the past, that doesn't mean your home can't sell for full value today. Conquer Termites Northside can help you understand exactly what you need to do to ensure your home retains as much of its value as possible when you suffer from termites in Indooroopilly.

Even if you're not looking to sell your property, preventing any devaluation depends on a few simple measures that you should be undertaking anyway. First, at the moment of closing for the home sale, you'll want to make sure that the home is free of any current infestations of termites. To achieve this, you'll want to make sure a professional treated your termite problem as soon as was possible, and that the appropriate long-term barriers were installed. The final step to retaining value is as simple as repairing any damage that may have been inflicted, restoring your home to as close a state as it was originally in as possible. Any termites you may have encountered in the past don't necessarily have to lower your property value.

Not every pest warrants an immediate professional response, but that doesn't mean you should take infestations lightly. Despite how irritating ants can be, finding one in your home all on its own doesn't necessitate an immediate pest treatment performed by professionals. In the case of lone ants and flies, it's always possible that you've just left a door or window open, rather than having fallen victim to a hidden, insidious hive of pests. However, should they start appearing in numbers, regardless of what preventative actions you take, then you should heavily consider reaching out to a professional team of pest control experts. Critically, though, you must remember that spotting a single insect that can pose a threat to your home, such as an individual termite, or even just the evidence they leave behind, like mud tubes, then you need to organise a professional inspection of your home. Every pest needs to be considered a real and dangerous threat to your home, even if you only find one of them in your home.

There is high level of finesse in the diet of any termite, regardless of their reputation for voracious appetites. Finding out what termites in Indooroopilly will and won't eat doesn't need to be difficult, thanks to the help of Conquer Termites Northside and our team of local professionals.

Not every type of wood presents the same allure to termites, making it possible to keep the pests away from your home. Any wood that has been embedded with preservatives as part of a pressure treatment will become more resistant to rot, decay, and the growth of fungi, making it a less viable food-source for any local termites. Dependant on the materials used in your home, termites will vary their interest in your home. While the pests love regular timber, they are less likely to be interested in trees such as redwoods and yellow cedars, as well as the non-living central core of trees known as heartwood. Sadly, however, these woods are less durable than lumber, which may be an unsuitable compromise for your needs. A composite material, ideally made of plastics and wood fibres, would circumvent that limitation, while still ensuring it cannot be consumed by termites. Building a home is a complicated venture, but you should consider how termites will regard the materials used in the construction.
