This is a common misconception. Termites readily penetrate concrete slab floors through gaps such as expansion joints and cracks and also alongside service penetrations such as pipes, drains, electrical wiring etc.
Termites often gain entry over the outside edge of the slab floor, sometimes by building mud shelter tubes that protect termites from the elements and in many homes this slab edge is not exposed because of the concrete paths and gardens, this condition may also allow the termites undetected entry into your home.
In recent years, timber framed, brick veneer homes built on concrete slabs have become extremely popular and this form of construction is one of the highest risk types in terms of termite attack.
Where possible we ask our clients to avoid disturbing termites before a thorough inspection can be carried out. Disturbing the termites may prevent identification of the termite species and may make it difficult to assess the extent of the infestation in your house. It can also reduce the number of treatment options available.
However, even if you have sprayed termites already, we can still tailor a solution to your problem. The important thing is to take action and arrange an inspection as soon as possible to prevent further damage to disturb the termites is that disturbed termites will normally move on and may affect another area of your home or building.

Animals must be kept off treated surfaces until they are dry – usually about 30 minutes.

Yes. Many of our clients are in a similar position and we only apply odourless control agents and we may ask you to vacate the premises for an hour or so following treatment or longer if your allergy or asthma is particularly severe.
