Termite Protection and Treatment Services
Termite Treatment Options
If our inspectors find evidence of termites in your home, it’s time to take action! We offer a range of termite treatment options to eliminate the infestation and protect your home from future invasions. Some of the methods we use include:

Liquid Termiticides
We apply a liquid termiticide to the soil surrounding your home’s foundation. This creates a barrier that prevents termites from accessing your home and eliminates any termites already inside. Don’t worry, these treatments are safe for you, your family, and your pets.
Baiting Systems
We install termite bait stations around your property, which contain a slow-acting poison that termites take back to their colony. Over time, the poison spreads throughout the colony, effectively wiping them out.
Physical Barriers
In some cases, we may recommend installing physical termite barriers, like metal shields or crushed stone, to block termites from entering your home. These barriers are particularly useful during the construction of a new home.
Monitoring and Maintenance
After treating your home for termites, it’s essential to keep an eye on things and ensure they don’t come back. Our team will provide ongoing monitoring and maintenance services to ensure your home remains termite-free.
Protect Your Home on the Gold Coast with Our Termite Inspection & Treatment Services
Termites can be a real pain, can’t they? With our beautiful warm and humid climate, it’s no wonder these little pests love making our homes their own. But don’t worry, we’ve got your back! At Gold Coast Pest and Termite, we offer friendly and reliable termite inspection and treatment services to help you protect your home from these unwelcome guests. So, let’s have a little chat about termites and how our services can help you keep your home safe and sound.
Understanding Termites on the Gold Coast
First, let’s get to know our enemy. Termites are tiny, wood-eating insects that can cause extensive damage to wooden structures in our homes. They work silently and can be hard to detect until it’s too late, and the damage has already been done. On the Gold Coast, we have a few different types of termites, but the most common ones are subterranean termites. These sneaky little critters build their colonies underground and create mud tubes to travel to and from their food sources (aka your home!).
Why You Need a Termite Inspection
Now that we know what we’re dealing with let’s talk about termite inspections. A termite inspection is essential to catch any termite activity before it causes significant damage to your home. Our friendly and experienced inspectors will thoroughly examine your property, both inside and out, to identify any signs of termite infestations. We’ll check for mud tubes, damaged wood, and other indicators that termites are present.
It’s a good idea to schedule a termite inspection at least once a year, or even more frequently if you live in a high-risk area. Regular inspections give you the peace of mind you need, knowing that your home is safe from these destructive pests.
The Cost of Termite Inspection & Treatment
I know what you’re thinking – this all sounds great, but what’s it going to cost me? The truth is, the cost of termite inspection and treatment can vary depending on several factors, such as the size of your property, the extent of the infestation, and the type of treatment required. However, investing in termite control is much more cost-effective than dealing with the expensive repairs that termite damage can cause.
On average, a termite inspection on the Gold Coast can cost anywhere from $200 to $400.
The cost of termite treatments can range from $1,500 to $3,500 or more, depending on the method and the size of the infestation.
While this may seem like a significant expense, it’s important to remember that the cost of repairing termite damage can be much higher, often reaching tens of thousands of dollars. So, in the long run, investing in termite inspection and treatment is a smart and cost-effective decision for your home and your wallet.

Tips for Preventing Termites
We know that dealing with termites can be a bit overwhelming, but there are some simple things you can do to reduce the risk of an infestation in your home. Here are a few tips to help you keep termites at bay:
Keep wood away from your home
Store firewood, timber, and other wooden materials at least 20 feet away from your house and off the ground. This helps to reduce the chances of termites finding their way into your home.
Reduce moisture
Termites love moisture, so make sure to fix any leaky pipes or taps and ensure that your gutters and downpipes are functioning properly. Proper ventilation in roof spaces and underground garages (if you have one) can also help to reduce moisture levels.
Regularly inspect your home
Keep an eye out for any signs of termites, such as mud tubes, damaged wood, or small piles of what looks like sawdust (this is actually termite droppings). If you spot any of these signs, it’s time to call in the professionals!
Schedule routine inspections
As mentioned earlier, regular termite inspections are essential to catch any potential infestations before they become a major problem. Make sure to schedule an inspection at least once a year, or more frequently if you live in a high-risk area.
