Termite Control & Prevention

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold amounts of damage to properties in Caringbah each year, creating a strong need for termite control.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

Termite treatments alter with regards to their goals and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 main termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to produce a barrier in between the termites and the building to be protected. Contact us today for more information on the price of termite controls.

For the most part, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Caringbah. However, there are distinct benefits to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is important to first get a professional white ant exterminator visit the property to evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor places cannot be treated due to access issues, the white ants will detect the gaps and attain ingress via them.

The often widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the house by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even when you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Ecologically friendly
