Control & Prevention Against Termites

In Australia it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Arncliffe annually, making termite control so vital.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at each quickly. There’s two main strategies performed for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is using chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the house and the termites. Contact us today for more information about the costs associated with the various treatment options.

Generally, in Arncliffe, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some specific benefits and should be considered.

It is important to engage the services of an experienced pest exterminator to check over your house so the damage can be fully looked at.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain entry.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The most often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to 8 years after treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding effect.

The entire nest can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Environmentally Smart

Common Indications Of A Termite Infestation

A number of signs that you might have a termite infestation include:

• Timber in the dwelling has small holes
• Damaged or disintegrating wood
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

When left untreated, even just one nest of termites is capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The structure can even become unlivable due to the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, may be unrepairable.
