Termite Inspections

Termite inspections aren’t optional—they’re essential. At Reaper Pest Management, we protect homes and businesses across South East Queensland through detailed, affordable, and professional inspections.

Termites are known as the “silent destroyers” for a reason. Often, they go unnoticed until serious structural issues arise. Our team of licensed experts uses advanced detection tools and decades of experience to spot even the smallest signs of infestation.

Why Termite Inspections Are So Important

In Australia, one in three homes will experience termite damage. This isn’t just a problem for timber-framed houses. Brick and steel properties are at risk too, as termites target timber supports, flooring, and fittings hidden inside walls.

Regular inspections are the most cost-effective way to prevent damage. When identified early, termite issues can be resolved quickly and affordably. If ignored, a colony can spread and cause thousands of pounds in repairs.

We’ve developed a five-step process to give you peace of mind and clear answers.

  • 1

    Initial Consultation: We listen to your concerns and learn about your property’s history with pests.

  • 2

    Full Property Inspection: Inside and out, we check all timber, moisture-prone areas, and potential entry points.

  • 3

    Thermal Imaging Scans: We use infrared cameras to detect heat signatures linked to termite nests or activity.

    Clear Action Plan: If termites are found, we provide you with honest, no-pressure treatment advice.

The Tools We Use to Detect Termites

We don’t rely on guesswork. Our team uses a full suite of advanced tools to detect termites without damaging your home.

  • Thermal Imaging: Thermal cameras detect heat changes caused by active termite colonies. This technology allows us to identify infestations behind walls, ceilings, or floors—without drilling or cutting.

  • Moisture Meters: Termites thrive in damp areas. Our moisture meters help us pinpoint leaks, wet timber, or risk zones where termites might nest.

  • Termatrac T3i Radar System: This all-in-one tool uses radar, thermal, and moisture sensors to detect termites inside walls. It tracks movement in real time, allowing for highly accurate, non-invasive inspections.

  • Borescopes: For tight or hidden spaces, our borescopes let us visually inspect inside cavities or under floors.

What’s in Your Termite Inspection Report?

You’ll receive a comprehensive digital report on the same day as your inspection. It includes:

  • 1
    A clear summary of findings
  • 2
    Photographs of risk areas or damage
  • 3
    Moisture and thermal readings
  • 4
    Floor plan diagrams with notes
  • 5
    Treatment recommendations (if needed)

Our reports are designed to be easy to understand, even if it’s your first inspection.

Signs of Termite Activity

Termites are often called “silent destroyers” because they can cause significant damage before they are even detected. Here are common warning signs we look for during inspections:

  • Mud tubes along foundations or walls

  • Wood that sounds hollow when tapped

  • Warped window frames or doors

  • Bubbling or peeling paint

  • Discarded wings from termite swarms

  • Fine wood dust (frass) near baseboards or skirting

If you notice any of these warning signs, contact Reaper Pest Management immediately for a professional termite inspection.

Where We Inspect

We thoroughly check:

  • Subfloor spaces
  • Roof voids
  • Wall skirtings and timber frames
  • Retaining walls and fences
  • Sheds, garages, and outbuildings
  • Decks, pergolas, and garden beds
  • Plumbing and electrical access points

Because termites are so small, they can enter homes and businesses unnoticed, so no corner is left unchecked.

Frequently Asked Questions
