Possums Living in Elwood Sailing Club

POSSUM PROOFING IN ELWOOD

Pest Control Empire was recently called into the Elwood Sailing Club after a family of possums had taken up residence in the roof. Sarah, the manager, found it increasingly hard to concentrate while the possum family thumped around directly above her office. The smell from the possum droppings and urine had also become quite overpowering. Tim Clinnick, from Pest Control Empire, conducted a thorough inspection of the facility and located a small opening that was likely providing an entry point into the roof. Read More

TERMITES ACTIVE IN KEILOR

Tim from Pest Control Empire specialises in termite control and is based in the suburb of Keilor. While many people think that termites are not active in Keilor, Tim is here to tell you otherwise. “I’ve conducted many timber pest inspections in the Keilor area. I usually conduct them on behalf of people who are in the market to buy property. In the majority of homes that I’ve inspected, I’ve either found live termites or evidence of termite activity. Without a further invasive inspection, it must be assumed by Australian Standards that live termites are within a home if evidence of activity is found”, says Tim.

TERMITE INFESTATION MELTON SOUTH

Pest Control Empire recently responded to a call from a concerned homeowner in Melton South who investigated a creaky floor and located an active termite infestation. Unfortunately the homeowner panicked and tipped petrol on the termites that he could see. While the petrol may kill the termites that it directly contacts, it will have no effect on those that it does not. It also has no impact at all on eliminating the termite colony. The homeowner called in the team at Pest Control Empire who subsequently conducted a thorough visual termite inspection according to Australian Standard 3660.2. If you require a termite inspection please see the attached information: Termite Inspections. Read More

Bedbug Bites Melbourne

BEDBUG INFESTATION P2 | PEST CONTROL EMPIRE

The inspection for bedbugs should be methodical. If the bed can be disassembled this should be done. If the bedhead is bolted to a wall it should also be removed and inspected. Bedbugs are tiny and can fit into any crack or crevice. The mattress should be checked for any rips or tears. If a rip or tear is found the mattress should be discarded. If this is not feasible another option is to chemically treat the mattress, allow it time to dry and then fit it with a bedbug mattress protector. Nothing will be able to get in or out of the protector. Read More
