Termite Control

Got termites?

Using the latest treatments and techniques, You can rest assured

Sargents Pest Control will remove the termites in your home.

We use EXTERRA to treat the termites in and around your home.


EXTERRA is different from other termite products, as it’s a safe and environmentally-friendly way to eliminate the pests. 
This product uses the termites’ natural instincts against them, eliminating the attacking termite and their whole colony. 

Even after the colony is eliminated, EXTERRA Stations guard your home using the natural power of CO2. By using EXTERRA, you are establishing a long-term termite solution that’s easy on you and the environment.

The First Step


The first step of using EXTERRA is to install in-ground stations around your property where termites are likely to be foraging for food. The Stations contain eucalypt timber interceptors, which are the termite's preferred food sources.
If your property is surrounded by concrete, we will use the EXTERRA in-concrete Station.
EXTERRA above-ground stations are the preferred approach for when the termites are already in your home. REQUIEM Termite Bait is placed in the safe and sealed Station when it is installed. Above-ground Stations speed up the process of colony elimination.

When They’re Intercepted


Termites are easily detected in the EXTERRA Stations. The unique design allows for termites to be seen without disturbing them.

REQUIEM Termite Bait


REQUIEM Termite Bait is added without disturbing the termites. This is vital to achieve quick and consistent results.
REQUIEM is highly palatable to termites and they readily consume it in preference to timber. 

The termites feed on the REQUIEM and take it back to the colony where it is fed slowly throughout. Since the termites die gradually, they don’t associate their death with the consumption of REQUIEM, this ensures that the entire colony is eliminated.

The Colony Is Eliminated


Once the colony is eliminated, any REQUIEM is removed and fresh timber interceptors are placed in the Stations.
To protect you against the constant threat of termites, the EXTERRA system works on an ongoing process for peace of mind.

Benefits of Termite Pest Control


Termites are a big deal and can cause so much damage to your home and end up costing you a lot of money in maintenance fees. For us, the best kind of termite infestation is no infestation at all. If you do find yourself with a termite problem on your property, our professionals will place a termite treatment around your house, creating a protective barrier to keep termites from going into your house, but if one does manage to get by, it won’t last long against the treatment. Some other benefits these can provide to you as a homeowner include:

  • Regular treatment might sound like a lot of money, but that’s better than having to fix termite damage or a large-scale infestation. The small investment for regular treatment will be worth it compared to having your home fumigated. Also remember that with fumigation, not only will you have to be out of your home for at least five days, but it also won’t pay for the repairs of the damage.
     
  • With professional termite extermination you will not only have a handle on any termite problems that are brewing, but it will also allow for inspection of any other pests that might be lurking about your property. Termites are terrible, but having spiders, wasps, or hornets near your loved ones isn’t something you want either.

  • If there are any conditions that are inviting termites in or near your home, the exterminator will be able to point it out to you and assist on how to prevent it from happening any further.

  • Being able to give you peace of mind is of the highest priority to us, and we want to reassure you that you won’t have to worry about any termites taking up your precious house. We will not only give you peace of mind with our excellent services and treatments but also in knowing that your investment is safe with the best.

Common Mistakes People Make Regarding a Termite Treatment Service


We’ve mentioned that these pests can cause serious damage to your house and property, but we’ve seen so many mistakes that people make regarding these pests and what steps to follow. We are here to guide you in the right direction by telling you some of these mistakes and how you can avoid them from occurring in your house. We always recommend contacting a professional for any pest-related issues, but we want to extend the opportunity for you to learn what to look out for.
  • The first mistake, which is probably the most common one we encounter, is people not taking the infestation seriously enough. Now we know everyone has dealt with some kind of pests in the past, but the problem with termites is that they work around the clock to damage your property, and you don’t want to realise this problem before it’s too late and the repair costs start adding up.

  • Something we’ve seen not a lot of people do is take care of the exterior of their house. It can play a major role in the extent of termite invitation. It’s crucial to regularly clean your home's exterior to keep an eye out for any unusual activity.

  • Missing the signs of a termite infestation can be pretty easy because you can mistake it for warped wood, rotten wood, or just wood damaged with age. Some of the damage can occur under the surface, away from the visible eye. If you do find yourself with any issues like rotten wood, warped wood, or wood you might think is damage from age, we recommend calling a termite inspection just in case you leave, and the infestation gets worse.

  • Lastly, we would like to address two significant mistakes we’ve seen, and those are not acting quickly enough regarding the infestation and thinking you can clear it up by yourself. You must remember that termites don’t stop until the wood is completely gone, and then they’ll just move on to the next piece; you have to act as soon as you suspect something is wrong. Termites aren’t like other pests; if you miss but the smallest piece of the colony in termite elimination, they’ll just start to spread all over again.
