Termites Within the Property Can Lead to Increased Health and Fire Risk
Termites are important to the ecological function as they convert dead trees into organic matter. However, they can cause serious hazards in the urban environment when they consume the wooden structures in buildings. In a study conducted by Griffith University, up to 65% of Australian housing is affected by termite activity, costing Australian property owners $4 billion annually. Their presence within the property can lead to increased health and fire risks. The two videos below show properties that have been severely impacted by termite infestations.
Prevention against termite damage is needed. Physical and chemical barriers can prevent termites from invading and damaging your property.
