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 houses in Emu Heights every year, making termite control so vital.

Termite Removal

Termite treatments alter in terms of their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 main termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to make a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected. Give us a call today to learn more about the cost of termite controls.

Generally, in Emu Heights, termite specialists use a chemical treatment as the preferred method management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has distinct benefits and should also be considered.

It is wise to first have a professional white ant exterminator visit the house to evaluate the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and again access the property.

The most commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites can often pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, creating a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility of termite ingress through non-treated gaps is lower.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even if you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 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 especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Ecologically Smart

Common Signs That You May Have Termites

Several signs that you might have a termite infestation include:

• Small holes bored in timber panels
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• Mud Tubes on wood, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork or in subfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the colony

How Problematic Are Termites?

If left untreated, even a single nest of termites are capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The structure may even become unusable due to the significance of the infestation, and in the extreme, can even be unrepairable.
