Displaying Frequently Asked Questions
Is bamboo flooring termite resistant?
No. The claim that bamboo flooring is not likely to experience problems with pests, including termites, is false. An Indian study conducted in 1994 found that bamboo is susceptible to attacks from carpenter bees, borer beetles, stain fungi, various marine orgnanisms and termites (Kumar, Shukla, Dev, Dobriyal et al 1994).

If left unchecked, termites can cause extensive and costly damage as they are capible of eating away nearly a metre of bamboo in a year!

If your bamboo flooring is showing signs of pest attack or if you want to be safe before installing any bamboo flooring in your home, ring Westate Pest Control on 1800 647 440 to organise an inspection and a free quote if treatment is needed.
