When conducting a termite inspection or general pest treatment, a pest management professional assess the risk level of the property to determine the best approach for treatment, prevention, as well as recommendations to lower the risks identified.
Here are some defining factors:
Low Risk property:
Well-maintained property, minimal moisture, and no signs of current pest activity.
Moderate Risk:
Some moisture issues, minor cracks in the foundation, entry points or nearby vegetation that could attract pests.
A more targeted treatment, with additional focus on recommending sealing entry points and addressing moisture sources.
High Risk:
Active pest activity, significant moisture problems, timber-to-soil contact, or nearby environments conducive to pest infestation.
Intensive treatment, including spot spraying, targeted treatments, and potentially installing a long term management system to prevent infestation. Providing recommendations to help address conducive conditions, this can help lower the risk.
Risk ratings help technicians determine their treatments to suit the specific needs of the property. Whether the home is low, moderate, or high risk, regular inspections and appropriate pest management measures are essential to maintaining a pest-free environment.
