Control & Protection Against Termites

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Kurnell every year, making termite control so crucial.

Termite Removal

Termite treatments change in terms of their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. The two major termite management strategies; attempting to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to produce a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected. Phone us today for more information on the cost of termite controls.

Chemical remedies are a more standard treatment to get rid of white ants in Kurnell homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct benefits that cannot be forgotten.

Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise these gaps and can sometimes get in.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Since the termites can not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber that they have been eating previously. As well as killing the termites 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 can be eliminated, even when you don’t 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 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 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

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Environmentally friendly

The Telltale Warning Signs Of Termite Infestation

Typical signs that your house is infested with termites:

• Minute holes in the drywall or timber
• Wood which is damaged and collapsing
• Mud Tubes on the wood, floorboards, ceilings, brick work and in subfloor areas
• Mounds or colonys can be seen in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony
