Thermal imaging is an effective way to inspect your home and can detect problems that need to be addressed before evidence can be seen.

Termites, air flow, water leaks and a host of other problems can be seen by the infrared imaging as a different colour than the normal spectrum in the room. It’s like being able to see inside your walls like an e-ray can see inside your body. Although termites are cold insects, their activity can show up as hot because of the way they digest wood, while their mud tubes and tunnels may appear dark because of moisture.

There are many reasons why thermal imaging termite detection is a good option for detection. The traditional ways for detecting a termite presence, such as tapping on the wall or drilling holes, can be damaging to the building. Not only is thermal imaging quick and effective but it also doesn’t damage the structure. There is accuracy in the results and there is a clear representation of the termite presence. With this process, termites can be found earlier, before there is extensive damage that can be costly.

The advantages of a thermal imaging system are: 

• Non-destructiveness
• Rapid and effective scanning of termites
• Environment friendly
• No chemicals or radiation used
• The building is kept free of damage
• Immediate and quick information on termite infestation
• The pictures give proof of evidence and infestation
