Termite Removal & Prevention

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically utilised for termite management in Quakers Hill; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites may also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, providing a flow on and efficient result.

Because the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding effect.

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

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 termites before the perimeter is breached.
