Is DIY Termite control worth it in Pacific Pines?


The Gold Coast is home to a variety of termite species, affecting all corners of the Gold Coast - Pacific Pines is no exception. Our team at CTS Termite and Pest Control have witnessed how these termite-affected homes cost families thousands of $$$ on repairs. Armed with little knowledge and experience, many homeowners in Pacific Pines believe bug sprays and DIY termite treatments can curtail the presence of termite infestation. Sooner rather than later, these homeowners observe that termites keep continuing to return as home remedies simply just don't work. It's okay to do the work for yourself, but when it comes to termite infestation, it's not. It's somethings you shouldn't neglect the protection of your own home in Pacific Pines.

DIY termite treatments are everywhere on the internet today and a huge chunk of them are not effective at all and can be misleading. When you use products that aren't even tested and proven safe by licensed termite controllers, the tendencies are high for termites to get even more attracted to your home. Even a can of bug spray can't completely eliminate all the termites as the Queen produces more termites every day than the amount that spray can kill. The chemicals that your trusty bug spray contains might be causing more harm than good as the Queen termite continues to reproduce.

Instead of doing it all by yourself and using DIY termite treatments, we recommend you to call out a professionals to have your home in Pacific Pines protected. Don't settle for less and protect your most prized investment from termites. Call on the termite experts from the Gold Coast, CTS Termite and Pest Control. We only use effective termite treatments such as human-safe chemical and physical barriers, and termite baits.
