Solution For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold quantities of damage to properties across Glen Alpine each year, creating a strong need for termite control.

Termite Control & Protection

You can find different types of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will going to apply one of two general termite management processes. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

As a general rule, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for white ant treatment in Glen Alpine. However, there are distinct benefits to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is vital to have the white ant situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to assess the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and get access through them.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after contact with them. In addition, individual termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than 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 may be exterminated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a home will make it difficult to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
