Key Pests in Burleigh

Termites are a major pest in Burleigh and especially out into the Tallebudgera Valley. Being in an area of high rainfall, the termites love the soil moisture and coupled with the warm temperatures, they’re more than happy to eat your house all year round!

With the large number of waterways in the area, mosquito and biting midge problems are common. But of course there are plenty of ants, cockroaches and spiders too!

Our general pest treatment will deal with most pest problems, but if you have a particular pest problem of infestation, it may be necessary to have a specialised pest treatment.

Termite inspections and treatments in Burleigh

Government bodies, building authorities and Australian Standards recommend that homes are inspected for termites at least once a year and more often in areas of high termite pressure. Burleigh is in an area of high termite pressure, so inspections twice a year are strongly recommended, especially if you don’t have termite protection in place.

Our professional termite inspections will not only pick up any signs of termite activity but will also assess your property for conditions and construction faults that may make your home more likely to suffer a termite attack. However, without a termite protection system in place, between one inspection and the next, termites will still be able to get into your home without being noticed.

Standard home insurance policies do not cover termite attack, so it’s a smart investment to get a termite protection system installed. With termite attack more likely than flood, fire and other natural disasters combined, in many ways a termite protection system is really more important than your home insurance!

About Burleigh

When the coastline was surveyed back in 1840 by James Warner, he named it “Burly Head” due to the prominent headland. Eventually this became Burleigh Heads, although the area had been inhabited by indigenous Australians for thousands of years previously by the Kombumerri clan, who had named the area 'Jellurgal'.

With its year round warm temperatures and sub-tropical rainfall, Burleigh is a haven for pests! Homeowners and business owners will need to carry out regular treatments to keep they homes and businesses pest free.

Burleigh area consists of the coastal strip, the canal areas and inland areas along Tallebudgera Creek and into West Burleigh. Each with its own environmental factors, there are variations in the pest problems in the difference areas. Although termites are a problem throughout the region, the termite pressure is intense in the bush areas, and the canal areas have to contend with plagues of mosquitoes and biting midges.
