Control & Inspection Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold amounts of damage to homes in Oatley each year, creating a large need for termite control.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

You will find several types of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the pros, they are going to apply one of two general termite protection processes. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

For the most part, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Oatley. However, there are distinct benefits to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It’s wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator visit the property to look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain access.

The often widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The most common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which results in a flow on result.

In this way, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Ecologically Friendly
