A perimeter pest spray puts a treated band around the outside of your home on the Sunshine Coast. It targets the crawling insects that live in gardens and walls, such as cockroaches, ants, spiders and silverfish, before they get inside. Many people book one each year before the warm weather, or pair it with an inside treatment when pests are already indoors.
The crew we book treats the outside walls from the ground up, paying extra attention to weep holes, window and door frames, eaves, pipes, gutters and the edges of paths and slabs. They also treat garden beds against the house, fence lines, the garage entry and outdoor living areas. On raised homes they treat the subfloor posts and stumps where pests climb.
- Outside walls, weep holes and slab edges
- Eaves, window frames and door frames
- Garden beds, paths and fence lines near the house
- Garages, carports and outdoor living areas
- Subfloor posts on raised homes
To help the treatment do its job, keep mulch, leaf litter and firewood a little away from the walls, trim shrubs back from the house and avoid hosing down the treated walls for a few days. Heavy rain can wash some treatment away from exposed areas, which is one reason many people book before the wet season. The crew will tell you how long to keep pets and kids off treated areas.
Homes with thick gardens against the walls, raised decks or timber retaining walls often see more crawling pests, so mention these when you call. Pairing the outside spray with a treatment inside is common when cockroaches or ants are already in the kitchen.
