Ants are often confused with termites (white ants) but the two insect groups have very little in common apart from their size and social behaviour. Ants feed on a wide variety of foods, from those readily found in homes to the sugary excretions from plant bugs.
Ants can also be carriers of disease organisms since certain species are attracted to such things as dog faecal droppings and to other waste products in garbage containing organisms which cause dysentery or pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella.Call the professionals at Outback Pest Control Pest Management to arrange a convenient time for our technician to address your concern/s.

One of the major menaces of any home with the right, or rather wrong, conditions is the problems of bed bugs. These little mites of misery can make life a living hell for anyone coming in contact. They are literally bloodsuckers that have a lifespan of four to six months in the right conditions. Female bedbugs lay over 500 eggs in its lifetime and these hatch two weeks from when they are laid.
Due to their unsavoury habits, flies spread disease such as food poisoning, dysentery, hepatitis, typhoid fever and various internal parasites. Some fly species, such as biting midges and March flies, have piercing and sucking mouthparts and inject saliva which also causes skin irritations. The most effective form of fly management involves the proper disposal of garbage.
Australia is home to more than 2.000 known species of spiders, and it is estimated that four times that number actually exist in this country waiting to be discovered. Love them or loathe them, spiders are a part of everyday life in Australia.
Within the ranks of Australian Spiders we find some of the most uniquely interesting and skilled creatures of the animal world, along with a few potentially deadly species and some even more harmless individuals with fearsome reputations.Spiders are as well tuned to their environment as any other group of animals and are probably aware of their surroundings in ways we do not yet understand.

Wood decay is caused by fungi which destroy the cellular content of wood, often leading to collapse. Moisture is essential for the fungi to develop and feed on the cells of the timber. As wood dries it reaches a moisture content of about 12 to 15% in coastal areas and 8 to 12% in inland areas. Decay fungi will not develop in timber which has a moisture content of less than 20%.
