Borer Treatment
Post 1 of 6: Possible Pest Problems When Insulating Your Home
Chances are, it's the first time in years (if at all!) you've visited your roof, underfloor or wall cavities when you decide to insulate. This means annoying pests have had plenty of time to set up shop and enjoy the warmth and potential food source without being disturbed. You could have thought it wouldn't be possible for there to be any pests in residence because you haven't heard anything, or seen any signs - but some pests, like borer, can be silent. And others, like rats and mice, might come out to enjoy your home when you're out or asleep.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
