PROFESSIONAL Termite Control Services

Termite Treatments to Lake Macquarie & Surrounding Areas

Termites are silent destroyers that can wreak havoc on your property long before their presence is even detected. At JRG Pest Control, we understand the urgency and complexity of dealing with termite infestations. We offer a range of safe, effective and tailored termite control solutions to protect your home or business.

Termite Inspection & Treatment

Termites feed on wood and other cellulose materials, slowly compromising the structural integrity of your property.

Silent Invaders

Termites often work unseen within walls, under floors and around structural beams. By the time damage is noticeable, it can be extensive and costly to repair.

Rapid Reproduction

A single termite queen can lay thousands of eggs, resulting in a quickly expanding colony that intensifies the damage over time.

Structural Damage

Continuous feeding by termites can weaken wooden structures, leading to sagging floors, damaged beams and even compromising the safety of your property.

Costly Repairs

Untreated termite infestations can lead to significant repair bills, potentially reducing the value of your property.

Pest & Termite Specialist in Lake Macquarie

We offer a range of termite management services designed to detect, eliminate, and prevent infestations:

Visual Inspections

Our trained professionals conduct thorough visual termite inspections, identifying early signs of activity before major damage occurs. We inspect:

  • Foundations, walls and wooden structures
  • Roof voids, crawl spaces and subfloors
  • Gardens, fences and outdoor areas

Termite Treatments

We offer targeted treatments using the safest and most effective solutions, including:

  • Liquid Termiticides – Creating a protective barrier around your home to stop termites from entering.
  • Foam Treatments – Directly treating infested areas within walls and voids.
  • Dusting Methods – Using specialised dust formulations to eliminate termite colonies.

Termite Monitoring & Baiting Systems

For long-term termite protection, we install baiting and monitoring systems around your property. These systems:

  • Detect early signs of termite activity
  • Lure termites into consuming bait, which eliminates the colony
  • Provide ongoing protection against future infestations

Pre-Purchase Inspections

Planning to buy a new home or investment property? Our pre-purchase termite inspections ensure that your potential property is free from hidden termite damage before you make a purchase.

Pre-Construction Termite Protection

Building a new home or extension? We provide pre-construction termite protection to safeguard your property from termites before it's even built. Our solutions comply with Australian building standards and help meet construction requirements.

Termite Reticulation Systems

A termite reticulation system is an underground network that delivers termiticide at controlled intervals to keep termites away. This system is ideal for long-term protection and easy reapplication of termite treatments without disturbing landscaping or flooring.

Think You Might have Termites?

Studies show that 1 in 5 homes in Australia will experience a termite infestation at some point, with the risk significantly higher in Queensland and other warmer subtropical and tropical regions. Even in New South Wales, Western Australia, and Victoria—where termite activity is generally lower—regular termite inspections and preventive treatments are essential to protect properties from potential infestations.

Common Termite FAQs

How do I minimise the risk of termite damage?

Termites thrive in moist environments, so reducing moisture around your home can minimise the risk.

  • Eliminate Moisture: Ensure proper drainage by maintaining functioning drainpipes and guttering.
  • Improve Ventilation: Reduce humidity in crawl spaces by enhancing airflow.
  • Manage Vegetation: Keep shrubs, vines and other vegetation away from your home, especially around vents and exterior walls.
  • Remove Debris: Clear out old formwork, tree stumps and roots near or under your home.
  • Avoid Wood-Soil Contact: Eliminate any direct contact between wooden elements and soil.
  • Routine Inspections: Regularly inspect your home’s foundation and wooden structures for signs of termite damage.
  • Proper Installations: Avoid attaching trellises, fencing or landscaping directly to your home’s exterior walls.

Common signs of termite activity include:

  • Mud Tubes: Look for small, pencil-sized mud tubes on exterior walls or foundations.
  • Hollow Wood: Tapping on wood may produce a hollow sound if termites have damaged it.
  • Discarded Wings: Finding discarded wings near windows or doors can indicate a termite swarm.
  • Visible Damage: Unexplained damage or crumbling wood in your property’s structure.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to have a professional inspection conducted.

At JRG Pest Control, we provide a range of targeted termite treatments, including:

  • Liquid Termiticides: Applied around the perimeter of your property to create a chemical barrier against termites.
  • Termite Baits: Strategically placed stations that attract termites, which then carry the bait back to the colony, effectively reducing the infestation.
  • Barrier Installations: Both chemical and physical barriers to protect your property from termite entry.

Yes. Our treatments are administered by licensed professionals using proven, eco-friendly chemicals. We strictly adhere to safety protocols to ensure the health and safety of your family, pets, and the environment.

We recommend a minimum of one annual inspection for termite control. However, in high-risk areas or for properties with a history of termite issues, biannual (every six months) inspections can help catch infestations early.

While our treatments are highly effective, termites can return if favourable conditions persist. That’s why ongoing monitoring and preventative maintenance are essential. Consider our monthly termite management plans for continuous protection against future infestations.

In addition to regular inspections and professional treatments, you can:

  • Maintain proper drainage and reduce moisture around your home.
  • Ensure that wooden elements are not in direct contact with soil.
  • Keep your property well-maintained and promptly repair any structural damages that might invite termites.
