Pest control in Kootingal
Kootingal and neighbouring Moonbi are villages on the New England Highway, with plenty of rural-residential blocks around them. Sheds, fences, stored feed and firewood mean rodent control and termite inspections are common requests.
Termites
Tamworth's summer rain, plus moisture from sprinklers and leaks, gives subterranean termites what they need around homes, sheds and garden timber. Have the home inspected regularly and check for mud tubes, hollow timber and damp areas. Read the Tamworth termite guide and what to expect from an inspection.
Licensing
In NSW, anyone who applies pesticides for a fee or reward needs a pest management technician licence from the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA). Termite and other timber pest treatments need a timber pest management technician licence. Licences are held by individual technicians and are listed on the EPA's public register. See how to check a licence.
