Tips

Stay vigilant

The best defence against pests is mindfulness. Remain aware of common places pests may hide on site, and check frequently. When building materials arrive from suppliers, inspect them for pests just in case.

Tips

Clean regularly

Waste from building materials, food scraps left by workers, and more types of rubbish create clutter, presenting a source of food or shelter to pests. Clear the site regularly.

Tips

Cover up wood

Exposed wood is a termite magnet, especially when the weather is humid. All wood, used or not, should be covered up every night and stored out of direct contact with the ground, so that underground pests can’t get to it.

Tips

Remove stagnant water

Water that pools in holes and becomes stagnant ends up being perfect breeding grounds for mosquitos. Drain the water and fill the holes.

Tips

Use a termite barrier

Every construction job should absolutely be protected by a termite barrier. The barrier is a wall of termite poison that prevents termites from making it far enough to get to your wood sources. Why deal with the headache when termites can simply be blocked off?

The Active New Build Pest Control Process

Step 1
Step 1

New Build Pest Inspection

After getting your call, we’ll come to the construction site for a thorough pest inspection in Sydney. We identify areas or objects at risk of infestation and give advice on what changes to make.

Additionally, many pest problems on construction sites start because there used to be pests living on the site before the influx of people displaced them. Chances are we can find out what pests plagued the area before construction began, so that we can be prepared for them when they inevitably return after construction wraps up.

Based on what we learnt from our inspection, we make our suggestions for proper pest control procedures going forth.

We tend to suggest preventive measures such as termite barriers for every construction site, but if there is already an infestation, we can offer treatment for that as well. With 100% eco-friendly and non-toxic pest solutions, workers won’t have to cease operations even after we’re done.

Question 1

What pests are most common in construction sites?

Cockroaches and rodents tend to be attracted to the waste and dirt produced from construction, but the biggest threat by far is termites. Wood is a critical material in construction, and it is often exposed during the process. If the weather gets humid or rains, this may attract termites to the site. Termite prevention is absolutely crucial

Question 2

What is involved in construction site pest control?

Once an inspection is complete, appropriate treatments are applied to combat existing pests, such as rodenticide for rats. Prevention measures such as termite barriers are also put into place to prevent even more pests from entering.

Question 3

What are the types of termite barriers?

There are both physical and chemical termite barriers. Physical ones create a wall of metal, plastic or other material that termites can’t penetrate to block their access to wood. Meanwhile, chemical barriers use insecticides poisonous to termites on the ground in an area around a site, killing off any termites that try to pass through.
