Control & Removal Against Termites

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Lewisham annually, making termite control so vital.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

You will find several types of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the pros, they will likely to apply one of two general termite protection strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical remedies are a more typical treatment to get rid of white ants in Lewisham homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct benefits that should not be forgotten.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or places can’t be treated due to access problems, then white ants may detect the breaks and attain access through them.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access via breaks.

The most often used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites in your house, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even if 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.

While In Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the residence design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
