Termite Control in Tiaro

Yes, many termite services include inspection of subfloor and under-slab areas where accessible. These zones are common entry points for subterranean termites. If direct access isn’t available, technicians may look for signs around slab edges, expansion joints or service penetrations. Identifying risks below the surface is a key part of thorough termite protection and helps prevent infestations from starting unseen.

Before your service, clear access to walls, subfloor areas, gardens and any built-in timber features. Move stored items away from perimeter walls, and trim back plants if needed. Indoors, ensure the technician can reach skirting boards and roof access points. Preparing your space makes the inspection more efficient and helps the technician identify risks and apply treatment where it’s most effective.

Termite services for these properties focus on checking ventilation, timber clearance and any signs of moisture or mud tubes. Treatments may include subfloor foaming or perimeter applications. Technicians tailor the service to the home’s structure for better long-term protection.
