The Best Time of Year for a Termite Inspection in Perth

🌍 When Should You Inspect for Termites in Perth?

Perth’s warm climate and sandy soils make it the perfect breeding ground for termites. Left unchecked, they can silently cause thousands of dollars in structural damage. But when is the best time to check for them?

The answer is: before they become a problem.

Here’s why timing matters, and when Perth homeowners should schedule their termite inspections.

🌞 Best Time of Year: Late Spring to Early Summer

October through December is prime termite activity season in Perth. Rising temperatures and increased humidity create ideal conditions for termite swarms (also known as alates).

Why inspect now?

• Catch early signs of infestation.

• Avoid structural damage and costly repairs.

• Ensure treatment is applied before peak breeding activity.

❄️ What About Winter?

Many homeowners assume winter is termite-free – but that's a myth.

• Subterranean termites remain active underground year-round.

• They may migrate indoors to warmer, more humid areas.

That’s why an annual inspection is critical, regardless of the season.

🏡 How to Know If You Need a Termite Inspection

Ask yourself:

• Is your home over 3 years old?

• Have you noticed soft timber, hollow-sounding wood, or bubbling paint?

• Are there mud tubes on walls, ceilings, or fencing?

• Have neighbours recently had termite activity?

If yes to any of the above, you’re overdue.
