Welcome back for our latest episode of On the Road with Kiki, starring none other than our fabulous pest consultant, Kristian! In this series, Kristian takes us around to homes and businesses around Adelaide to inspect for pest outbreaks.

Kristian’s first client is in Campbelltown, and they’re wanting to know how to protect the home from termites. The client was interested in a liquid spray being applied under the pavers adjoining the house. Kristian also recommended a baiting system. He ends up sending them two quotes for them to consider over the weekend.

The next customer is an existing client in Morphette Vale, who is currently renovating his house. Since he’s pulled up all the concrete pavers and poured down a new path, Kristian recommends protecting it with Kordon. The client requests that the Kordon be installed 100mm above the damp course to cover the damp course and brick work, which shouldn’t be a problem. For the inside of the house, Kristian suggests a subfloor spray and internal drill. Kristian arranges to send one of the construction consultants over for a more detailed quote.

It’s a long drive next to Tatachilla, where a client has termites that have damaged a wall in the granny flat. Kristian suggests that urgent treatment is needed, and since the client is keen to go ahead straight away, he books them in to have a technician come around next week.

The last client of the day is an existing Allstate client who has just opened a new café. However, with a cockroach outbreak, they’re very much in need of a commercial pest management plan. This involves monthly visits to monitor for pests including cockroaches, spiders and rodents. The client seems quite happy with Kristian’s recommendations and quote, so they up on the spot.

Happy Friday! It’s time for another episode of On the Road with Kiki. In this series, we follow pest consultant Kristian as he visits homes and businesses around Adelaide to assess pest outbreaks. Today, it’s all about terrible termites causing chaos yet again.

Starting off in Blackwood, Kristian visits a property that has already had a termite treatment in the past. Unfortunately, an inspection of two tree stumps in the yard reveals active termites. With another pile of wood in the yard, Kristian believes that there is a high risk of active termites entering inside, so he recommends a liquid treatment around the edge of the house and installing a baiting system.

The next client has just recently purchased a home in Mount Barker and they are keen to safeguard it from termite damage. After inspecting the property, Kristian suggests getting a baiting system and regular termite inspections to make sure that their new home stays protected.

After a road trip to Teal Flat along the Murray River to get to his last client, Kristian straight away notices that there are termite mud tubes along the exposed wooden frame of the home downstairs. Luckily, he’s unable to find active termites. However, it’s always better to be cautious given that there are big trees and large amounts of moisture in the area. So, he leaves the client a quote for a termite baiting system.

Established in 1986, Allstate has grown to become Adelaide’s leading provider of pest control services. With a 24/7 emergency availability, our highly trained team is fully equipped to offer innovative pest management solutions to residential, commercial and industrial properties.

Welcome back to another episode of On the Road with Kiki, featuring pest consultant Kristian. In this series, Kristian takes us around to Adelaide homes and businesses and gives a glimpse of how he tackles pest outbreaks.

Today, Kristian’s first client lives in Alberton, and they’re already an Allstate client. They recently built an extension and wanted to make sure that it was protected from pesky termites. While better access is needed to properly assess some bait stations, it’s clear that some stations are missing. Kristian gives them a quote for replacement bait stations to be on the safe side.

Then, it’s off to another property where there are termites in a tree stump. Kristian immediately notices mud tubes on the tree stump as well as the fence, so it’s very clear that there are termites nearby. In fact, the fence itself is leaning because of the termites damaging the timber. Kristian explains to the client that a spray treatment will kill the active termites, and a baiting system will kill the nest. He leaves them with two quotes to protect their house as well as the granny flat.

Next up, Kristian heads to the Adelaide Hills to catch up with pest technician Hossein. He knows pests inside and out through his studies in entomology in Iran, and ran his own pest control company there for 16 years. Providing excellent customer service comes naturally to Hossein, because he considers every situation from the client’s point of view when approaching his work. This is most definitely a quality that we value at Allstate!

For his final job of the day, it’s yet another home with active termites in a tree stump. Kristian measures up the property so that he can send a quote for a baiting system to the owner.

Family owned and operated, Allstate has been resolving pest outbreaks in all suburbs of Adelaide for over 35 years. Available 24/7 for urgent advice, we’re fully equipped to service clients in residential, commercial and industrial settings. As a local business ourselves, we’re committed to building a
brighter future for our community by supporting other South Australian businesses.

Thanks for joining us yet again for our latest episode of On the Road with Kiki. We shadow pest consultant Kristian, as he takes us to homes and businesses around Adelaide to assess pest problems.

Today, Kristian starts off the day in Port Adelaide to have a chat with termite technician Ryan Drennan about his work. While Ryan certainly finds his job interesting, he really enjoys being a part of the Allstate team because there is a close-knit family atmosphere where everyone is happy and strives to “kick tail and be proud of it”. His favourite company value is owning your mistakes, fixing them and moving on.

Then it’s off to look at active termites in a tree stump in the front yard of a home. While he completes a quick assessment of the home today, he still recommends a full inspection to make sure that all areas with active termites are detected. This inspection will cover the entire home, using specialised equipment including a moisture meter and borescope. He leaves the client with a quote for a baiting system and monthly to bimonthly reviews.

Next up, a client wants a quote for Allstate to takeover another company’s existing termite system at their home. Coincidentally, it turns out to be Sentricon, the same system that Allstate uses. Thankfully, while he doesn’t detect any active termites in the current baiting system, he still measures up and provides them with a takeover quote.

Kristian wraps up his Friday at his friend’s house, which has substantial evidence of termite activity, but strangely, no sign active termites. However, they can still be lurking nearby, so just to be safe, Kristian recommends a spray treatment be carried out, as well as installing a termite protection system.

Established in 1986, Allstate has grown to become an industry leader in preventing pest outbreaks and pest management. We are available 24/7 to service residential, commercial and industrial clients. Our team is fully equipped with modern equipment and innovative treatment options that are safe for children, pets and the environment.

Welcome back for another weekly episode of On the Road with Kiki. Join us as we follow pest consultant Kristian around Adelaide as he helps clients with preventing pest outbreaks in homes and businesses.

Kristian kicks off the day in beautiful McLaren Vale, but there’s definitely no time for wine tasting when there’s a possible threat of termites. After an assessment of the property, he provides a quote for a termite baiting system and it looks like he’s won this new client over with his outstanding service – they’ll give him an answer later today!

Next, Kristian heads to Goolwa to have a look at pest pigeons nesting on solar panels on a roof of a home in a retirement village. He sees lots of pigeons around the area, so he shows the client a sample of the mesh that will be used for pigeon proofing the solar panels. Before he leaves, a neighbour also wanted a quote for the same work, so Kristian ends up giving two quotes for proofing.

After a long drive back to the city, Kristian finds himself at Supplement Mart in Glenelg for another pigeon problem. The sales assistant is adamant that they can hear pecking, scratching and flapping noises in the roof space. Kristian agrees that pigeons have managed to find their way inside as he is able to locate an entry point. So, he offers a quote to manage the pest birds once and for all.

For the last job of the day, there’s yet more pest birds nesting on the roof of a home, with the solar panels littered with droppings underneath. Kristian quotes the client for not only solar panel proofing, but also a thorough clean underneath the panels as well as the gutter lines and surrounds.

Family owned and operated, Allstate has been preventing pest outbreaks in homes and businesses for over 35 years. As Adelaide’s largest pest control company, you can count on us to be available to help you with urgent problems 24/7.

We’re back again for another episode of On The Road with Kiki, featuring our fab pest consultant Kristian. We follow him around Adelaide as he travels to homes and businesses to assess pest outbreaks. Today, it looks like there are lots of pesky termites causing chaos.

Kristian arrives at his first job where the homeowner is looking for options to supplement their existing termite protection system. Thankfully, with minimal timber around the perimeter of the property, Kristian finds that there is a low risk of termite activity. However, just to be on the safe side, he recommends a thorough inspection and provides a quote for a baiting system.

Next up, a door has fallen off the hinges at a rental property, and immediately Kristian spots obvious signs of termite damage in the door itself. After a general assessment of the property, it’s very clear that there is a large amount of damage. Kristian recommends a full termite inspection, followed by a 12-month treatment program which involves installing a baiting system both underground around the perimeter of the home, and fitting baiting stations to the affected walls inside. Depending on the species of termites involved, they’ll need a follow up every month or two, until the termites are prevented.

Before you know it, it’s lunch time, and did somebody say KFC? Kristian takes a break from termites by grabbing his favourite Friday “cheat day” meal.

Then it’s back on the road to a biting insect assessment. A client with a backyard chicken coop has taken photos of small brown insects crawling around their home, and Kristian confirms that they are indeed bird mites. He recommends a two-visit treatment, 30 days apart, that covers all internal and external areas of the property to destroy the bird mite breeding cycle.

For the last job of the day in Unley, there’s termites in the skirting boards inside the home. Since the problem involves the boundary between two neighbouring homes, the owner will need to speak to their neighbour about the problem first. Kristian leaves them with two separate quotes for treatment.
