Termites, also known as white ants, are one of Australia’s most destructive pests. Termite infestations cause millions of dollars of damage to homes and buildings throughout Melbourne and its suburbs every year. That’s why organising termite removal in Melbourne is so important.
Usually, the discovery of these home invaders only occurs when damage is found. This damage isn’t covered by most insurance companies, so it’s best to get termite control and protection services from reputable pest control services. Bye Bye Pests is a trusted termite and pest control company protecting Australian homes and wooden structures from termites.
Termite Inspection & Termite Removal in Melbourne
Termites are invisible pests; they prefer dark, damp and secure places, which makes it very difficult to detect them – until it is too late. That is why arrange regular termite inspections is so important. There is no substitute for a certified and experienced professional who can perform a complete termite inspection and recommend the necessary termite control solutions. Bye Bye Pests has specialist pest exterminators who know where to find these hidden pests and how to keep them away from your home.
Diseases Transfer from Termites
Generally, termites don’t spread diseases to humans, but if you’re living in a termite-infested home, you may find your allergies or asthma symptoms are worsened. If termite saliva or faeces contaminates your food, there is a chance that you might get sick. Although termite infestation might not seem to be an important step in protecting personal health, doing so can reduce the risk of unwanted health problems.
When white ants eat timber, it needs to be replaced, resulting in a loss of thousands of dollars. If termites have done more than 80 percent damage, you’ll need to replace wooden doors, floors and other fixtures. At Bye Bye Pests, we recommend that you do not disturb any termites if you do find any. If they’re disturbed, they can move to other places or hide in small cracks and do further damage. Call our experienced pest control experts to organise fast and effective termite control in Melbourne.
There are certain steps you can follow to prevent an infestation of termites in your home, including:
- Remove any loose timbers that come into contact with your home’s exterior, as they can be conducive to termite activity.
- Moisture encourages termites, so it’s recommended that you fix any leaking drains, sinks or water pipes.
- Keep the vents clear to allow for cross-flow ventilation. Poor ventilation is another cause of termite entry.
- Store firewood at least 20 feet away from the house.
- Replace weather-stripping and loose mortar around the basement foundation and windows.
- Keep the garden beds under the vents or weep holes on the exterior of the walls.
- Organise a termite inspection with a certified termite inspector or agency. This detailed inspection is required every six months and can help you detect termites in the initial stages before the situation gets worse.
- Replace or remove timber retaining walls or landscaping timbers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our pest control experts use a poisonous liquid termiticide that works like bait. When termites come into contact with the liquid termiticide, they become carriers. This will pass from termite to termite and will eventually reach the nest and kill every termite there, including the queen. When a queen termite dies, the colony dies, and the infestation is over.
The exact amount you will have to pay will depend on how severe the infestation is and what work is required. Bye Bye Pests provides highly affordable termite removal in Melbourne that’s reasonably priced and will get the job done.
