 Section D Risk management options


To help protect against financial loss, it is essential that the building owner immediately control or
rectify any evidence of destructive termite activity or damage identified in this Report. The Client
should further investigate any high-risk area where access was not gained. It is strongly advised that
appropriate steps be taken to remove, rectify or monitor any evidence of conditions conducive to
termite attack.

It is recommended that the client act on the following advice to further protect their investment against
termite infestation:

Undertake thorough regular inspections at intervals not exceeding twelve months or more frequent
inspections where the risk of termite attack is high or the building type is susceptible to attack. To
further reduce the risk of subterranean termite attack, implement a management program. This may
include the installation of a monitoring and/or baiting system, or chemical and/or physical
management system. However, subterranean termites can bridge or breach management systems
and inspection zones and that thorough regular inspections of the building are necessary.

If the Client has any queries or concerns regarding this Report, or the Client requires further
information on a risk management program, please do not hesitate to contact the person who carried
out this Inspection.
