Mt Gravatt East, Brisbane, is regarded as a high termite-risk suburb. There are several reasons, mainly the age and construction type of the homes. Many are built from timber and are over 60 years old. Sadly many don’t have a current termite management system in place to stop concealed termite entry.
Another reason is that many properties have established gardens with old trees and tree stumps. These are the favourite nesting spots for termites. If you watch the below video, you will see live termites eating a stump that was very close to a house in Mount Gravatt East.
If you or your neighbours have some tree stumps, and it has been a while since you had your home last inspected for termites, please don’t hesitate to call us on 1300 417 007.
