Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight in Australia. Once they infest a structure, termites can rapidly create a large amount of damage, making it important to call your trusted Beacon Hill termite control provider.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly utilised for termite management in Beacon Hill; either the production of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting.

Termite control in Beacon Hill residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys can bring some definate benefits that should not be ignored.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The frequently used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to eight years following treatment.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a home by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they are eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for the kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

How You Can Tell If Your House Is Infested With Termites

Typical signs that your property is infested with termites:

• Tiny holes found in drywall and timber
• Wood that is damaged or disintegrating
• "Mud tubes" appearing on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Trees show signs of nests & mounds
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Destructive Are Termites?

If left untreated, even just one colony of white ants can do a surprising amount of destruction. The structure can even become unlivable as a result of the severity of the issue, and in extreme cases, may even be irreparable.
