Termite Control & Inspection

Around Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a massive level of property damage annually. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of Marsfield are advised to find reliable termite control services.

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at each briefly. There are two main management strategies performed for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and the other is using chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the residence and the termites. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Generally, in Marsfield, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred form management strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some specific advantages and should also be considered.

It is highly recommended to engage the expertise of a specialist pest exterminator to check over your home in order that the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

So you already know you have a termite problem and need the very best control available in Marsfield? Do you want to find a reliable termite control service in Marsfield? We will help you to make an informed decision on the best options for your home along with providing competitive prices.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may identify these gaps and can sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite access through untreated gaps is much lower.

The most frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to 8 years following application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your home by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they were attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be erradicated, even when you don’t 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 may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Smart

Common Warning Signs You Have A Termite Infestation

A number of signs that you might have a termite infestation include:

• Holes in timber panels
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Nests or mounds in tree areas
• Winged termites (or alates) can be noticed leaving the colony

Can Termites Badly Damage My Home?

If left untreated, even just one colony of white ants is capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The dwelling may even become unusable because of the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, may even be irreparable.
