It’s a natural reaction to want to run for the can of fly spray and kill all the termites found in the affected area, however, we advise that you DO NOT DISTURB ACTIVE TERMITES FOUND WITHIN IN YOUR HOME. The more termites that are present the better the chance of controlling the colony.
Follow these three simple steps in the event of finding termites:

Unfortunately, many homeowners find termite damage 'by accident', this can be going through walls with the vacuum cleaner, seeing bulging walls, unusual earth or dirt appearing out of walls or near skirting boards, musty smells in a room, discolouration on walls and many other ways.
Finding termite damage or signs of termites can be quite alarming. With D-Tec by your side, we can help ease your mind as we understand the worry and concern and have helped many families over the years through this process.
With 1 in 3 homes affected by termites, it is best to protect your home from a termite infestation. The best way to protect your home from a termite infestation is:
Having a termite inspection carried out a minimum of every 12 months (even with a termite treatment, a termite inspection is also recommended).
When inspecting, our highly trained, licensed termite inspectors will use the latest termite technology using a T3i device (motion, radar and moisture sensor) and thermal camera to look for signs of subterranean termite activity and evidence of termite damage.
This detailed inspection will encompass the entire dwelling, from the property boundary right through the home, including the roof void. See further on how we carry out a termite inspection.
Be vigilant of any signs of termites around your home. Moisture and cellulose are what termites live on, don't have leaky taps or leave stumps of wood in the garden. Make sure your slab edge is exposed. Our termite technician will also advise further tips.
Most importantly have your place protected with one of the options listed below. Our highly trained D-Tec technicians will assess your property with a free quote and advise whether a protection zone or monitoring/baiting system is more suitable for your property and budget.
D-Tec offers different termite treatment options to suit your property and your budget. See our termite treatment cost page for more information.
