Services
Termite Control
Our termite control services use advanced chemical barriers, baiting systems, and KORDON-certified installations to eliminate colonies and prevent reinfestation. We conduct thorough inspections to identify entry points and apply targeted treatments for long-term protection. Our methods prioritise safety for families and pets while ensuring structural integrity against subterranean termites.
Pest Inspections
We perform comprehensive pest inspections using thermal imaging, moisture detection, and Termatrac radar technology to identify hidden infestations. Our assessments cover residential and commercial properties, focusing on high-risk areas like foundations and timber structures. Early detection helps prevent costly damage through proactive intervention strategies.
Chemical Barriers
Chemical barriers create protective zones around properties using approved termiticides that repel or eliminate termites. We install both physical and chemical barriers during construction or retrofitting existing buildings. These systems provide 5-8 years of protection when maintained through regular inspections and reapplications as needed.
Baiting Systems
Our baiting systems target termite colonies directly by placing monitored stations around properties. Worker termites carry bait back to nests, effectively eliminating entire colonies over time. This method complements chemical barriers and is ideal for environmentally sensitive areas where liquid treatments may not be suitable.
Emergency Exterminating
We offer 24/7 emergency pest control for urgent infestations, including termite swarms and rodent invasions. Our rapid response team arrives promptly with equipment to contain and resolve critical situations. This service ensures immediate protection for homes and businesses experiencing severe pest-related threats.
Questions
What are common signs of termite infestation?
Mud tubes on walls, discarded wings, hollow-sounding wood, and damaged structures indicate termites. Contact us immediately for professional inspection and treatment.
Can I treat termites myself?
DIY termite treatment is ineffective. Our certified technicians use advanced methods like Termidor and Premise for complete colony elimination and prevention.
How long do chemical termite barriers last?
Properly installed chemical barriers last 5-8 years. We recommend annual inspections to maintain effectiveness and address new risks promptly.
Are pest control chemicals safe for pets?
When applied by professionals, treatments are safe. We provide clear safety guidelines, including ventilation periods, before commencing any work.
Do you service commercial properties?
Yes, we treat commercial, industrial, and educational facilities with tailored solutions to ensure pest-free environments for businesses and staff.

We service from Helensburgh to Gerroa, including Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, and surrounding suburbs for comprehensive pest management.

I have been using Me Buggs for over 5 years. He is just AMAZING! quality and professional service every time. The price is fantastic at the level of work he does and seeing no bugs, spiders and cockroaches in the home for 6 months is brilliant! Especially for you have pets and children, the chemicals are safe too
