Termites are a major problem for homeowners in Australia. In fact, they cause more damage to homes than fires, floods, and storms combined! Termites, also known as "white ants," are small, pale insects that feed on wood and other cellulose-based materials.

Australia is home to some of the most destructive termite species in the world, including the subterranean termite and the drywood termite. These species can cause extensive damage to homes, often without the homeowner even realising it until it's too late.
