It's absolutely a wonderful question for us when people ask us why termites eat houses. It's not because they want to irritate you, but because it's nutritious for them! How can wood be nutritious even for this creature? That's debatable, but Sydney Termite Control has been dealing with this question for an awful lot of years. The goal is to help you understand how termites work, and then to help you figure out what you need to do so that you can get rid of them.
However, this doesn't mean setting a trap on the floor and hoping they will all run to its location. Termites are a lot smarter then people give them credit for, which is why you should think about having a reputable exterminating company on your side. Oh, and if you're still wondering what they do with this entire wood, wait until you read the answer we give you.
Actually, termites have a lot of microorganisms in their bodies, enough to turn the wood they gnaw into something actually nutritious. We don't suggest you try it yourself, of course, but the point is that termites can actually eat wood until it's time to go somewhere else. And unfortunately, even pesticides may not help because if you've tried enough of them, termites can actually become immune to them.
Unfortunately, the only way to get rid of termites permanently is to get rid of the nest, too. I say "unfortunately," because in fact, termite nests are really hard to find. You have to contain things before the population gets even bigger, too, making it more difficult. Why do you have to contain things before the population gets bigger? Actually, once you reach a certain time period, they could have been destroying the insides of your home's walls and you could require costly construction repairs.
Is that a risk you really want to have? My guess is that the answer is no, and Sydney Termite Control doesn't want you to, either. You may be sitting there thinking that we're just trying to sell you something, but the fact is, this is a necessary service if you don't want problems over the long term. So take a step back and think about things for a moment. Would you rather have a complete overhaul of your home, or would you rather have us, people that have been doing this for a long time, get rid of your termites for you?
Of course, after we've provided our services, you'll probably need to reorganise your home a little bit, but every situation is different. If you have a complete infestation of termites, it's much easier to call us, for example, than it is to make a call to your builder to have reconstruction done. This literally saves thousands of dollars out of your pocket.
If we can educate you on everything a termite does regarding their feeding habits, where they enjoy nesting, and the appropriate steps to eliminate them, you'll feel more comfortable using Sydney Termite Control. After all, it's in our name and we've been helping individuals just like you for a very long time. - 29954
