About termite inspections
Australian standards recommend a termite inspection at least once a year, and more often in high-risk areas. Inspectors check the roof void, subfloor, fence lines and garden timbers using moisture meters and thermal cameras, then report on activity, damage and conditions that invite termites. An inspection is a few hundred dollars; unnoticed termite damage routinely runs into the tens of thousands, and home insurance does not cover it.
Getting quotes in Woodroffe
For termite inspections, ask each pest controller two things up front: the all-inclusive price, and how soon they can attend Woodroffe. If the job is not urgent, saying so can shave real money off the quote, since operators can slot you into an existing Palmerston run.
Local knowledge counts
Woodroffe sits in the Palmerston area. Mention the suburb when you enquire and ask the provider to confirm travel, availability and any callout component before you agree to work.
Quick answers
How much does pest control cost?+
A general internal and external pest treatment for a standard home typically runs $150 to $350. Termite inspections are usually $250 to $400, and termite barrier or baiting systems run into the thousands depending on the home's perimeter. End-of-lease flea treatments are often around $100 to $200.
Do pest controllers need a licence?+
Yes. Every state licenses pest management technicians, and termite work has additional requirements. Ask for the licence number and check it covers the treatment being quoted, especially for termite chemical barriers where warranties depend on accredited installation.
How often should I get a termite inspection?+
At least annually, per the Australian standard, and every six months in high-pressure areas or homes with previous activity. Concrete slab homes are not immune; termites enter through expansion joints, pipe penetrations and garden beds built above slab level. An inspection also documents conditions before you sell.
