You know you have a significant termite problem when they start to build their nest out of the wall and onto your sofa. This is the situation a homeowner in Morningside Brisbane experienced this weekend. She pulled the sofa away from the wall to clean and found the corner of her lovely three-seater covered in termite workings and some very startled termites.

Now, there weren’t any signs of termites in the corner only two weeks ago when the owner pulled the sofa out. It is a scary thing to find this kind of rapid infestation in your home. Where else are they setting up if they are coming out of the wall?

We applied Termidor foam to the affected area and recommended an external chemical treatment. These homeowners were lucky that the termites made themselves evident. In most situations, a lot of structural damage can occur before it becomes apparent to anybody.

Have a look at the photo below to get an idea of what damage the termites had done.
