Protecting Your Home Starts With the Right Termite Treatment Plan
Termites are one of the most destructive pests in Australia — and NSW sees some of the highest activity rates nationwide. In fact, one in three homes will experience a termite attack at some stage. Certain suburbs, particularly those in the Hills District and surrounding areas, are more prone to infestation due to moisture levels, soil conditions and timber structures.
Without routine inspections and an active termite protection system in place, these silent invaders can cause devastating structural damage. In severe cases, the damage may be so extensive that the property becomes unsafe to repair, leaving demolition as the only option.
Why You Need a Professional Termite Inspection First
Before any treatment can begin, a comprehensive termite inspection is essential. This ensures we know exactly where termites are active, how far the infestation has spread, and which treatment method will be most effective.
Unfortunately, not all pest companies follow the national guidelines. Some still rely on outdated methods that can miss key warning signs.
At So Pest Off, we use four advanced inspection technologies, aligned with Australian Standard AS3660.2:
- Visual inspection of all accessible areas for signs of termite damage or activity
- Audible testing using a donga to detect hollow-sounding timber
- Thermal and moisture imaging to identify heat signatures and high-moisture zones behind walls and floors
- Termatrac radar detection to pinpoint live movement, allowing us to locate activity without drilling or damage
Our inspections are thorough, non-invasive, and competitively priced from $275 plus GST, including a detailed report and recommendations.
Our Termite Treatment Process
Once termite activity is confirmed, we build a customised treatment plan suited to your property layout, soil type, construction design and risk level. Our team is fully licensed and Termidor accredited, which means we use the most effective, industry-trusted products available in Australia.
Treatment options may include:
- Baiting Systems: Ideal for active infestations. Bait is carried back to the colony, targeting the queen and stopping reproduction.
- Chemical Soil Treatments: Non-repellent termiticides like Termidor® create an invisible barrier around your home that termites pass through unknowingly.
- Colony Eradication: Using a slow-acting transfer formula, termites spread the product throughout the nest, ensuring full elimination.
- Termite Protection Upgrades: If your home has an existing system, we can refill stations, enhance barriers or recommend upgrades for maximum protection.
We only use accredited products like Termidor® and Trelona®, backed by years of research, proven results, and in some cases, up to $2 million in structural damage warranty when installed by certified professionals like So Pest Off.
What Happens After Treatment?
Following your termite treatment, we’ll guide you on what to expect over the coming days and weeks. Most treatments are slow-acting by design, allowing termites to spread the product through the colony. During this period, it’s important to avoid disturbing bait stations or treated soil.
Our technicians will schedule follow-up checks to confirm termite activity has ceased and provide recommendations for ongoing protection. An annual termite inspection remains essential even after treatment to ensure long-term safety and early detection of any new activity.

Comprehensive Inspection
We begin with a full property inspection using four advanced detection methods to ensure nothing is missed:
Visual assessment for signs of termite activity or damage
Audible testing using a donga tool to check timber for hollow spots
Thermal and moisture imaging to detect hidden termite presence within walls
Termatrac radar technology to pinpoint live movement without invasive drilling
This approach gives us a detailed, non-invasive picture of what’s happening behind walls, floors and structural timber.
2
Targeted Termite Treatment
If termite activity is detected, we provide immediate on-site advice and a clear quote for treatment. We typically begin with professional termite baiting to stop the colony. As a Termidor accredited provider, we use Australia’s most trusted solution for long-term termite elimination, backed by an optional warranty. If an existing termite system is installed, we’ll inspect, refill or recommend upgrades as needed.
3
Installing Termite Barriers
If your property lacks a termite protection system, we’ll work with you to design a custom barrier solution tailored to your home. We install Termidor® soil barriers for long-term protection against subterranean termite intrusion. As certified Termidor technicians, we guarantee the system is applied to manufacturer standards and eligible for the Termidor Assurance Warranty.

Annual Termite Inspections
Termites don’t stop and neither should your protection. An annual inspection is critical to detect early activity, confirm barrier performance, and protect your investment. These yearly checks provide insight into what’s happening beneath your floors, behind your walls and around your property.

Termite Control and Treatment in Sydney
Protect Your Home from Silent Structural Damage
Termites are persistent and destructive pests that can cause extensive structural damage before you’re even aware of their presence. These insects rarely appear in plain sight, yet they work continuously, foraging for food up to 100 metres from their nest and feeding colonies around the clock. Left untreated, a termite infestation can compromise your home’s integrity and lead to costly repairs — or, in some cases, complete structural loss.
At So Pest Off, we specialise in termite treatment and prevention using industry-leading tools and technology. As an accredited Termidor provider, we use only proven products to eliminate colonies and protect your home from future attack. Our licensed technicians deliver annual inspections, full detection reports, and custom termite treatment plans across the Hills District and Greater Sydney.
Common Signs of a Termite Infestation
Early detection is key to preventing long-term damage. If you’ve noticed any of the following signs, it’s time to arrange a termite inspection:
- Mud trails or dirt tubes appearing on walls or foundation edges
- Soft or sagging floorboards, architraves or door frames
- Paint or plaster that appears cracked or bubbling
- Repeated, unexplained power outages (caused by termites chewing through wiring insulation)
- Clicking or rustling sounds within the walls
- A swarm of small flying insects near lights or windows (often mistaken for ants)
Important: Never disturb mud tubes or termite activity if you find it — this can cause termites to retreat temporarily, making detection and treatment more difficult. Contact So Pest Off immediately for a professional inspection.
What Do Termites Look Like?
The most damaging termite species in Australia is Coptotermes acinaciformis, responsible for around 70 percent of structural termite damage in homes. These termites are blind, pale in colour, and range in size from 3 to 7 mm. Their foraging networks extend up to 50 metres from the nest, often hidden in soil, tree stumps or structural timbers.
Coptotermes feed on cellulose-rich materials, mainly wood and do not discriminate between softwoods or hardwoods.
Whether it’s radiata pine or Tasmanian oak, once they establish a food source, they feed continuously. These termites communicate using pheromones, which help mark trails and coordinate activity, making them efficient and difficult to detect without specialised equipment.
Understanding Mud Trails and Termite Entry Points
The most visible sign of a termite infestation is the appearance of mud tubes on your walls, foundations, or subfloor supports. These tubes are built by termites as protective tunnels, allowing them to travel safely from the soil to interior timber without exposure to air or predators.
Common places where mud trails form:
- Along the base of brick walls or foundations
- Around weep holes or small gaps at ground level
- On concrete stumps or supports under the home
- Behind garden edging, decking, or timber fences
- Inside wall cavities, where they may go undetected for years
If you find any dirt-like tubes or deposits, especially where they were not visible before, do not attempt to clean or disturb them. These are often active transport routes for termites entering your home and need professional investigation right away.
