When you put your home up for sale, you want to present the property in the best possible light. Many homeowners spend considerable amounts of time cleaning the interior of the home and sprucing up the gardens and grounds.
This effort can often lead to a lot of interest from buyers – but a common clause in a purchase contract is for a building and pest report to be done before the bottom line is signed.
This step can be left to the buyer to initiate, but proactive sellers often get a building and pest report done before they put the home on the market so they can fix any issues, and increase their chances of a clear sale.
This is especially important for pests, which can seriously put off any interested buyers. They may be prepared to overlook a crack in the wall plaster, but rats in the pantry and termites in the roof tend to be a deal-breaker.
You need more than DIY treatments
If you get a pest inspection done and it turns up a few infestations, it can be tempting to simply get some DIY treatments.
There are plenty of products readily available at the supermarket that promise to kill the pests or drive them out. But at A1 Professional Pest Control, we find DIY treatments are ineffective in the long term.
Whilst a DIY treatment may kill visible pests, it seldom gets to the heart of the infestation, and in no time at all the pests are back in force, which is a problem if you’re seeking to sell the property and pass a pest inspection.
Get professional pest control help
The best way to eliminate pests from your property to pass a pest inspection is by enlisting the help of a professional pest controller.
For example, experts like us at A1 Professional Pest Control get rid of termites by injecting termite-infested timber with specially formulated foam to drive them out. We don’t just spray surfaces and hope for the best.
Our Canberra-based team had worked with scores of local homeowners to prepare their properties for sale and to pass pest inspections with flying colours.
If you need Canberra pest control that works, get in touch and we’ll help you tackle any infestations with professional know how and results that last.
