Termite barriers are essential for protecting Gold Coast properties. LessPest More Control provides tailored barrier solutions that prevent infestations before they start, helping homeowners avoid costly repairs and keep their investment safe in the region’s termite-prone climate.
The picturesque lifestyle of the Gold Coast comes with one hidden challenge – termites. The warm, humid climate that attracts residents and tourists also provides the perfect breeding ground for these destructive pests. Each year, termites cause millions of dollars’ worth of damage to properties across Australia, and the Gold Coast is no exception.
For homeowners and business owners alike, termite infestations can go unnoticed for years. Subterranean termites, in particular, thrive in moist soil and can silently eat away at the structural integrity of a building. Without effective prevention, property owners face expensive repairs and even reduced property values.
This is where termite barriers become a crucial defence. By creating a physical or chemical shield, they stop termites from accessing a property before they can cause harm.
Living in Queensland means facing a constant risk of termite attacks. In fact, one in every three homes across the Gold Coast, Logan and Tweed Coast is affected. Without a perimeter treated zone (termite barrier), it’s not a question of if termites will invade, but when.
A chemical treated zone is one of the most cost-effective ways to protect your biggest investment. Think of it as a security shield for your home — the cheapest insurance policy you’ll ever take out. Learn more about termite barriers here:
Termite barriers are installed in key locations, such as around foundations, beneath slabs, and within walls. These systems act as the first line of defence by blocking or killing termites as they attempt to enter.
On installation day, LessPest More Control’s experts dig down around the footings of your home to expose soil areas. The soil is treated with the selected chemical, then carefully reinstated. For concrete areas, neat drill holes are placed 200–400mm apart, filled with treatment, and sealed with tidy plugs for a professional finish.
This process creates a continuous protective barrier that blocks concealed termite access.
uses advanced materials and techniques tailored to Gold Coast conditions. Their process begins with a detailed inspection to identify risks and customise the installation. To maintain effectiveness, barriers are supported by regular inspections and monitoring, ensuring ongoing protection year after year.
