Control & Treatment Against Termites

White ant or termite infestations are rather common around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Plumpton annually. That is why termite control and treatment is so important.

Termite Removal & Management

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them briefly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite control: first is the complete eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is using chemical treatment to create a barrier between the home and the colony. Contact us today to find out more about the costs associated with the various treatment options.

In Plumpton, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ benefits that shouldn’t be dismissed.

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

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide good protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can identify those gaps and get access via them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites can not identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your building by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed termite activity. In this way, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

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 especially useful 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

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not affected by weather
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

How You Can Determine If Your House Is Infested With Termites

Here are the common signs you have termites:

• Small holes bored in timber panels
• Damaged or decaying timber
• The presence of "mud tubes" on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the dwelling
• Obvious termite colonys & mounds in trees near the home
• Winged termites (or alates) may be noticed swarming from the nest

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

If left untreated, even a single nest of white ants are capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The structure may even become unsafe because of the significance of the issue, and in the extreme, may be unrepairable.
