About Whiteants.
White ants, also known as termites, are small soft bodied insects - about half the size of a match-head. It is estimated that they cause more damage to homes in Australia than from fire, floods and storms combined. The damage is so great that termite damage is not covered by insurance – meaning that it’s a problem that you need to keep on top of.
Rather than fast and furious, white ants work slowly and silently as they eat away your home or other property. Whether old or new, damage is done without you realizing it.
Recent industry surveys suggest that almost all unprotected properties in Australia are subject to attack by white ants. Severe structural timber damage by white ants to Australian homes is on the increase due to more homes being built of materials and designs that encourage hidden white ant entry and infestation.
White ants can cause long-lasting structural damage to your house that can be incredibly expensive to fix – so it’s important to make sure you get rid of the problem before it gets out of control.
