A Brisbane pest exterminator says he has never seen so many termite infestations, with the pest enjoying the perennial dampness caused by consecutive La Niña weather systems.
The wood-munching menaces' activities slowed when Queensland was under drought conditions, but with and consistent rain for the last two years, they are back with a vengeance and threatening properties.
"Termites have exponentially increased in the past two years," said Gavin Shill, who runs a pest extermination business.
