Termite Control & Extermination

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge levels of damage to properties in Fairfield East annually, creating a strong requirement for termite control.

Managing & Removing Termites

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify the gaps and can potentially get in.

The regularly frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is much less likely.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
