Commonly found throughout NSW and ACT - particularly in
urban areas or where eucalypt gum trees are highly prevalent.
Nest Location - Nasutitermes exitiosus build a mound nest which protrudes
30cm to 75cm above the ground. Control can be as easy as knocking the top off
the nest and a follow up insecticide treatment inside the nest.
Destructive Nature - Nasutitermes exitiosus are destructive to buildings
and other timber structures. Sometimes severe damage may occur, but not so commonly
as the other species listed above. |
