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. Previous termite infestations, however, are significantly different from active ones, and your home may still be able to sell for close to, if not the entirety of, its full value. With Conquer Termites Northside, you'll be able to do everything necessary to protect your home from losing value. To get in touch with our outstanding team, contact us on (07) 3356 8801.

Protecting your home from devaluation in the wake of a termite attack is no more complicated than a number of basic steps that should be undertaken regardless of whether you're seeking to sell your property. Because of how hard it is to retain value with an active infestation eating away at your home, you should first focus on keeping the property free of all termites. Professional termite treatments, as well as the appropriate long-term barriers, is all that's needed to keep your home free of the pests. Selling your home for its original value is as simple, now that the infestation has been treated and further infections have been prevented, as restoring it to its original state by repairing any damage that may have been inflicted. 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. Individual ants don't warrant a heavy-handed response, including a professional pest treatment. An open window or doorway is all it takes to let a fly or ant in to your home, which means that these lone creatures don't necessarily mark the presence of an unwanted colony hidden within your house. It will be team to contact your professional pest controllers, however, when ants and flies start invading your home in force, especially if all of the doors and windows have been closed. There is an inherent risk presented to your property by even individual pests in certain circumstances, which means you'll need to perform a professional pest control treatment even if you've only found a single termite or bedbug. 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.

The majority of homes use wood during the construction process, and by choosing the right woods, your home may be safer from the threat of termites. 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. When considering how likely termites are to consume your home, you should also consider what materials it is constructed out of. Certain types of lumber, such as that procured from yellow cedars and redwoods, aren't attractive to termites, and nor are the non-living central cores of trees, which is known as heartwood. Depending on your needs, however, the compromise these woods present in terms of durability may be untenable. Composite materials made of wood fibres and plastic make for an ideal building material, as they are both suitably durable and largely inedible to termites. Building a home is a complicated venture, but you should consider how termites will regard the materials used in the construction.
