Pest Control in Bellmere

Bellmere is a rural suburb in the Moreton Bay Region. As it lies to the west of the centre of Caboolture, Bellmere is practically considered a suburb of that town.

It is located 43 km from the capital Brisbane.

The 2016 Census put its population at 5,863 residents.

The Caboolture River makes up a portion of its southern border and all of its south-eastern area. Wararba Creek forms the eastern border before streaming into the Caboolture River in the south.

Bellmere is a quiet, peaceful suburb with many parks and green spaces. With its all-around good vibe, Bellmere is the perfect place to grow your family.

Potential Risks for Pest Infestation

The climate in Bellmere is ideal for pests to multiply. This is why property are vulnerable to attacks by different kinds of pests.

Termite Control in Bellmere

These tiny insects feed on materials that contain cellulose, making them a significant threat to homes. One termite colony can contain thousands of termites that feed 24/7. And the worst part is that they can live and breed underground and only to be detected after they have done obvious damage.

In Australia, termite infestation is common that 1 in 4 homes are affected. So, experts recommend that homes be inspected by pest control specialist at least once a year, depending on the property’s location.

Cockroach Control

Many people freak out at the sight of cockroach. Their fear isn’t baseless because not only are they disgusting to see, but they are also destructive and pose serious health issues. Cockroaches are associated with filth and mess, but the truth is a clean house is not safe from cockroaches.

They are already small, but still could become even smaller by flattening their flexible bodies. This lets them squeeze through the tiniest cracks in a building, which makes them tough to get rid of.

Because cockroaches are omnivores, they will eat anything, including foods that we eat. They have a taste for sweets, starches and animal protein as well as oily foods and items that are mouldy or fermented.

Ant Control in Bellmere

There are hundreds of species of ants in Australia, but only a few are considered as pests that invade people’s homes and backyards. Ants are social insects that build colonies housing millions of them. They eat almost any type of food, especially sweets, fats and oils, and meats. They are on a constant quest to forage for food that they travel to and try to enter buildings and gardens.

When they find food, they will bring other ants from their nests to gather the food and transport them to their colony. This is why we see many ants appear suddenly out of nowhere.

Ant problems should be taken seriously because they can spoil food, and some can even build their nests in foundations, potted plants and various parts of the house. Though they don’t directly cause structural damage like termites do, they can and do take advantage of existing damage.

Spider Control in Bellmere

Spiders play an important role in the ecosystem because their main food source are other insects and bugs such mosquitoes, flies, moths, cockroaches, etc. In short, spiders help keep the pest population down and therefore, minimise the potential for the spread of diseases.

But because fear of spiders is real in many people, spiders can be considered pests. This is in addition to the fact that spider webs can fill the corners of your home, making it look messy and unhygienic. There are also venomous spiders that we must avoid to prevent a medical emergency.

Silverfish Control

Silverfish are common in households because they need moisture to survive – and houses provide plenty of that. They are one of the oldest insects in the world, having been in existence for more than 400 million years, even predating dinosaurs.

Despite being ancient, they haven’t evolved to grow wings. But they make up for that with their speed and agility, which allows them to escape notice by humans. Being active only at night also helps silverfish stay safe.

They thrive on moisture, so they can mostly be found in basements, bathrooms and kitchens. They also congregate in humid attics and even crawl out from shower and sink drains.

Silverfish are not known to cause health risks to humans. But they can cause damage to personal belongings as they feed on materials with sugars and starches, such as books, newspapers, fabrics, clothing, etc.

Rodent Control in Bellmere

Rats and mice are constantly hunting for food, even entering people’s homes and place and business to scavenge for them. Aside from spoiling food and damaging building structures, rodents can also pose serious health risks. They can transmit over 35 chronic diseases, whether through direct contact with their bodily fluids or through the ticks, fleas and mites that infest their bodies.

They can also multiply very fast. A female rat or mice can produce 10-12 babies every 3 to 4 weeks. A couple of mice or rats can turn into a large group in no time at all. This is why you must act as soon as you detect a rodent infestation in your spaces.

Wasp Control

It can be difficult to distinguish wasps from bees because they sting people. Compared to bees, wasp sting is more painful, and wasps are known to attack even when unprovoked. When wasps feel threatened, they produce certain chemicals that will warn other wasps in their colony. So, they can attack in swarms and one wasp can sting multiple times, unlike bees.

Aside from being painful, wasp sting can also trigger allergic reactions in some people. When this happens, immediate medical attention is needed. Wasps pose danger to humans, children and pests. Food stores and restaurants are also not safe from wasps because they are drawn to various types of human foods.

If there is a wasp nest in your immediate vicinity, don’t attempt to remove it yourself. Call a licensed pest control technician to perform the nest removal safely.

TERMITE INFESTATION IN BELLMERE QLD

Bellmere Termite Hazard Level

High – Very High Risk

Termite Hazard Level Gauge image

According to the Interim Termite Hazard Map by CSIRO, the Moreton Bay area, where Bellmere is located, is in the high-risk category for termite infestation.

Because Bellmere is close to the sea, the area is a good target by drywood termites, which need high moisture content in the timber they attack.

Termite Images Suburb

Throughout Queensland, the most commonly found termites are Subterranean termites and Drywood termites.

The West Indian drywood termite, is the world’s most destructive drywood termite. It is the culprit to massive economic damage to timber houses in Queensland, including properties in Bellmere.

  • A coastal environment like Wynnum is prone to termite and vermin attacks.

  • The number one thing that attracts termites is water or moisture. It is almost a guarantee that if a home has water leakage problems, it will soon be invaded by termites, if it hasn’t been already.

  • Damage to homes, whether made from weatherboard, is likely if termites, or white ants, are left unchecked.
