Your garden might look like a tasty buffet to termites - mulch, fallen timber, even your garden beds. But hereโs the twist: once theyโve set up nearby, your home suddenly becomes the main course!
Termites donโt always start inside. They can begin in soil and garden debrisโฆ then, if left unchecked, move in, causing costly damage before you even notice.
What can you do to help?
โ
Remove Fallen Timber & Debris
- fallen branches, logs, and old tree stumps are prime termite food
- clear debris regularly to reduce nesting opportunities
โ
Reduce Moisture Build-up
- void overwatering near foundations
- Fix leaking taps, irrigation, or drainage issues
- termites thrive in damp soil - keeping areas dry makes them less attractive
โ
Regular Inspections
- inspect garden beds, mulch, outdoor timber, and fence posts at least once or twice a year
- look for mud tubes, chewed wood, or winged termites after rain
โ
Keep Timber Off the Ground
Direct contact with soil = termite highway!
Raise garden timber, logs, and sleepers off the ground whenever possible.
