Gold Coast Pest Services in Broadbeach

Gold Coast Pest Service are fully licensed and insured to provide a full range of pest control and termite services in Broadbeach and Broadbeach Waters, including:

For homeowners in Broadbeach and the canal areas of Broadbeach waters, a pest treatment once a year is generally all that’s required to keep the pests at bay. However, given the high termite pressure in the area it’s recommended that homeowners should always have a termite inspection at least once a year. Many customers decide to get the pest treatment and termite inspection carried out at the same time to save money.

For apartment blocks, hotels and businesses in Broadbeach, regular pest control services are often required to keep pest numbers down. Typically Gold Coast Pest Services provide quarterly services for many businesses, but we tailor the services frequency to your particular requirements.

Key Pests in Broadbeach

For houses in the Broadbeach area, termites are the number one concern, as the high rainfall and warm temperatures make it a real termite hotspot (see below for actions homeowners should take). Other pests that cause concern are cockroaches and ants, as well as mosquitoes and biting midges.

For apartment blocks and businesses, due to the high density of accomodation and plentiful food and rubbish, cockroaches and rodents are the main pests.

Our general pest treatment will deal with most pest problems, but if you have a particular pest problem or infestation, it may be necessary to have a specialised pest treatment. We also offer a range of commercial pest services to keep businesses pest free.

Termite inspections and treatments in Broadbeach

Annual termite inspections are a must for Broadbeach homes. Although termites will pick up termite activity and highlight any conditions that may make a termite attack more likely, they don’t actually stop a termite attack. As such, since termite damage is not covered by most home insurance, all homes should also have a termite protection system installed to prevent concealed termite attack.

Apartment blocks and businesses can still surfer a termite attack… termites will still find any wood inside metal framed buildings! So at the very least, businesses and body corporates should book annual termite inspections. But again, installing some termite protection measures is the best way to protect property.

About Broadbeach

The origins of Broadbeach as a suburb can be traced back to 1924 when 70 allotments were advertised at the “Mermaid Beach Estate”. Although houses continued to be built, it wasn’t until the construction of Lennon’s Broadbeach Hotel in 1955 (now the Oasis Hotel and Shopping Centre), that Broadbeach started its transformation into a holiday destination.

Other than the beach, perhaps the biggest attraction in Broadbeach are the Pacific Fair shopping centre, the Star Casino and Gold Coast Exhibition Centre. As the current end of line for the light rail, Broadbeach is one of the key shopping, entertainment and transport hubs on the Gold Coast.

With its year round warm temperatures and high rainfall / humidity, Broadbeach is a pest hotspot. In the high density hotel and apartment areas, where there is plentiful food, cockroaches and rodents can be a real problem. Although an attractive area to live, homeowners in the canal areas have to deal with mosquito and biting midge problems on a regular basis. Homeowners and business owners will need to carry out regular treatments to keep their homes and businesses pest free.
