During the Gold Coast’s summer storm season a number of pests can move into your home to escape the weather.
Rats and mice particularly tend to move inside at this time and as they are capable of causing damage to electrical wiring inside walls and roofs as well as damage to expensive building components, it is important that homeowners ensure that their home be inspected for rodents and that treatment be undertaken if they are found to be present.
All rodents must continually gnaw in order to wear down their teeth which grow continually and it is through this constant gnawing that significant damage can be done. Additionally, they are harbingers of disease especially via their droppings which can fall into food or be touched by young children.
The summer storm season could also cause spiders to move inside houses. Although most areas of the Gold Coast are not troubled by funnel web spiders, Huntsman and redbacks may move inside to escape the rain.
