Termite Control Serpentine

Termite inspections, treatments and prevention for Serpentine and the Loddon plains. Local knowledge and biology-driven methods, with AS3660-compliant reporting from an accredited Field Biologist.

Why Serpentine homes face real termite pressure

Serpentine sits on its creek in Loddon plains country — grain and grazing land where the creek line’s red gums and the district’s channel and tank moisture give subterranean termites the water and timber they need to keep colonies active.

The housing is largely timber-era farmhouses and town homes on stumps, and the district’s farms carry the real termite estate: sheds, hay storage, old sleepers and stored timber, each one a staging post and a food source within range of the house.

On the plains the inspection focus is moisture points and ground-contact timber. An annual cycle covering home and working buildings is the sensible standard. We start with the biology so the treatment deals with the colony at its source.

Serpentine termite questions

Where should farm owners around Serpentine look first?

Ground-contact timber near moisture: shed posts in damp soil, old sleepers, timber stacked on the ground and creek-side fence lines. That’s where activity starts, and where an annual professional look pays for itself.

I’ve found termites in my home — what should I do?

Leave them undisturbed and don’t spray them. Disturbing termites makes them retreat and re-route, which makes the colony harder to find and treat. Cover the area if you can and call us on 0467 857 177 — we’ll identify the species and treat the colony at its source.

Do you really come out to Serpentine?

Yes — it’s on our regular Loddon run with Bridgewater and Inglewood, and house-plus-farm visits are the normal way we work the plains.
