Our Building Inspectors Use the Latest Technology for Our Pest Inspection Report
As professionals, we use the latest pest detection technology to quickly detect and map out termite paths, nests and identify other pests. These tools are included in our pest and house inspections Melbourne service.
Termatrac T3i Radar Termite Detector
This device is used in our timber pest inspections and uses non-invasive, low-energy microwaves that pass through most building materials to detect termite activity. The high-frequency low radar emissions allow the operator to locate and track termite and other insect activity without disrupting the walls and foundations of your home. This comes especially useful in properties that use a lot of wood in Melbourne.
Moisture and Humidity Metre
Our state-of-the-art moisture and humidity metre allows our inspectors to identify potentially vulnerable areas where pests may build their nests. This helps you not to only address current issues but prevent future pest infestations in the long run.
FLIR E5 Infrared Camera Thermal Imaging
This device uses undiluted thermal pictures with visible light features that allow our inspector to instantly recognise hidden issues such as leakage, termite nests, and other pest problems, making it the best diagnostic tool for troubleshooting unforeseen building problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need a building and pest inspection for my property?
