Pest Management

When pests show up, it’s tempting to reach for a quick DIY fix you’ve seen online or on a late-night ad. Ultrasonic plug-ins, vinegar sprays, DIY “bug bombs” – they all promise fast, easy results. The reality is very different. In many cases, these options don’t solve the problem and can even make it worse. Here are some common DIY pest myths – and what actually works instead.

Did you know that termites work in silence, 24/7, behind walls and under floors. By the time most homeowners notice them, these tiny insects have already been feeding for months, sometimes years, chewing through framing timber, skirting boards, door jambs and even flooring. Repairs can be significant–and often aren’t covered by standard home insurance–so early detection and prevention are your best protection.
