Why Termite Inspections Really Matter in Perth
Termites are unfortunately a major problem in Perth.
In fact, 1 in 5 homes are estimated to have some termite activity each year, and cause millions of dollars in damage. Damage from termites can cost up to $150,000 to fix, and most of the time this damage isn’t covered by normal home and property insurance.
With often no clear signs on the surface and no noise behind the walls, until the damage is already significant – the only way to catch them early is with a professional inspection from a Pest Control Perth specialist.
That’s why we recommend annual termite checks for all properties in Perth — new or old.
What Are the First Signs of Termites?
Look out for these warning signs:
- Mud tubes along walls, skirtings, or foundations
- Hollow-sounding timber when tapped
- Blistered or bubbling paint
- Discarded wings near windows
- Clicking sounds from inside the walls
- Tight-fitting doors or sagging floors
Unfortunately, if you notice any of the above, you may already have high termite activity.

Our Three-Step Process for Termite Inspections
Chambers Pest Control delivers thorough termite inspections, designed to uncover issues early and outline a clear path to long-term protection:
Pre-Inspection Consultation & Site Walkthrough
Every inspection begins with a clear understanding of your concerns. We ask the right questions to guide our process:
- Have you seen mud tubes, hollow timbers, or unusual insect activity?
- Has the property had previous termite treatment?
- Are there recent renovations, plumbing leaks, or garden modifications?
Detailed On-Site Inspection
Our licensed technicians inspect internal, external, and substructure areas of your property, focusing on high-risk zones. We use advanced tools like thermal imaging and radar to detect:
- Heat anomalies from termite activity.
- Movement inside walls or concealed timber.
- Moisture build-up often associated with active nesting.
Identification, Damage & Risk Report
Following inspection, we provide a clear, actionable report that outlines:
- Type of termite (e.g. Coptotermes acinaciformis).
- Exact locations of activity or evidence.
- Current level of damage (visible or inferred).
- Risk level of further infestation.
- Recommended treatment strategy.
