Pest control in Drummond Cove
Drummond Cove is a coastal community north of Geraldton, with many holiday homes and older beach houses. A home that sits empty for weeks can have pest activity go unnoticed, so regular inspections and a quick check after each visit help. Timber decks, stairs and outdoor furniture are worth including.
Termites
Geraldton's dry, winter-rain climate doesn't rule termites out. Moisture from leaks, sprinklers and garden beds against walls is what often draws them to a house. Have the home inspected regularly and check for mud tubes, hollow timber and damp areas. Read the Geraldton termite guide and what to expect from an inspection.
Licensing
In Western Australia, pest management businesses must be registered with the Department of Health, and treatments must be carried out by a licensed pest management technician under the Health (Pesticides) Regulations 2011. The technician's licence card lists endorsements, such as Commercial Domestic Pests or Termites and Timber pests, that show what they can treat. See how to check a licence.
