Pest infestations can cause serious damage to homes, businesses, and construction projects across Melbourne. They threaten health, hygiene, and property integrity, often spreading quickly if not managed early.

Common pests in Australia include termites, rodents, wasps, ants, spiders, cockroaches, and bed bugs.

Each presents unique challenges — termites silently weaken building structures, rodents chew through wires and contaminate food, while cockroaches and ants spread bacteria that can trigger allergies and infections.

To manage these risks effectively, T47 Pest Control provides complete pest management solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial properties across Melbourne.

Their professional approach ensures every infestation is treated safely and efficiently.

Understanding Pest Infestation

What Is a Pest Infestation?

A pest infestation occurs when insects or animals multiply beyond control, causing damage to property or posing a threat to health. Examples include:

• Termites nesting inside walls or timber floors
• Rodents gnawing through electrical cables in warehouses
• Cockroaches hiding in kitchen cupboards and spreading bacteria

Even a small issue can escalate rapidly, turning into a full-scale infestation that requires professional treatment.

Signs You Might Have a Pest Problem

Many pest problems remain hidden until they cause visible damage. Common signs include:

• Droppings or urine stains around corners and cupboards
• Gnaw marks on furniture, wires, or packaging
• Strange or musty odours from enclosed spaces
• Fine wood dust or hollow timber indicating termite activity
• Scratching or movement noises behind walls or ceilings

Both residential and industrial spaces are at risk. For instance, ants invading your kitchen or rodents nesting in a warehouse can quickly disrupt daily operations.

Termite Control: The Silent Destroyers

How Termites Damage Property

Termites are one of the most destructive pests in Australia. They feed on timber and cellulose materials, weakening building foundations and wooden furniture. In many cases, homeowners don’t notice the damage until it’s too late.

Effective termite control involves a detailed inspection followed by the right treatment plan. Methods include:

• Baiting and dusting systems
• Foam and soil treatments
• Chemical barriers to stop termite entry
• Monitoring stations to prevent reinfestation

Professional termite management protects your home’s structure and value. Learn more about protection methods at Termite Solutions.

Pre-Construction and Pre-Purchase Termite Control

Pre-Construction Pest Control

Before construction begins, applying a termite soil treatment beneath the foundation creates a long-term barrier against future infestation. This process protects the structure from subterranean termites and is highly recommended for all new builds across Melbourne.

Pre-Purchase Termite Inspections

For homebuyers, a pre-purchase termite inspection helps identify any hidden damage before finalising a property purchase. It ensures that you’re investing in a safe, termite-free property without unexpected repair costs.
