Control & Protection Against Termites

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. When they infest a residence, termites can rapidly create a large amount of damage, making it crucial to call your reliable Bexley termite control provider.

Termite Removal

You will find several types of termite situations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are likely to apply one of two general termite removal strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Bexley, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ advantages that should not be ignored.

It is essential to have your white ant situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to look at the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can detect the gaps and access the property.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The regularly common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Eco-friendly

• Wood in the building has holes
• Damaged or crumbling timber

• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the nest
