Darra is known for its rich history and abundance of character-filled post-war weatherboard homes. While these homes have stood the test of time, their timber construction makes them a prime target for Subterranean Termites.

The “Stumps & Caps” Challenge: Many homes in Darra sit on timber or concrete stumps. Over decades, garden beds often rise up to cover the “ant caps” on these stumps, or the timber stumps themselves begin to decay in the ground. This creates a direct, hidden path for termites to travel from the soil right up into your floorboards and wall frames.

German Cockroaches & Ants: Older established suburbs often struggle with persistent German Cockroach populations in kitchens and Black Ants in the large backyards common in Darra.

Our Approach: We don’t just spray the skirting boards. For Darra homes, we pay special attention to the sub-floor area, checking stumps for rot and termite mudding. We ensure your home’s history is preserved, not eaten away.
