Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Ramsgate every year, making termite control so important.

Termite Removal/Management Processes

Termite treatments alter regarding their aims and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are two main termite management strategies; attempting to eliminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Contact us today to learn more about the price of termite controls.

Chemical remedies are the more typical treatment to kill white ants in Ramsgate homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has some distinct advantages which should not be ignored.

It’s important to first get a professional termite exterminator come out to the building to fully assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover the gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

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

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a flow on result.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be eliminated, even if you do not 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.

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 particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for kids and pets
• Ecologically sound

• Wood which is damaged and breaking down
• Mud Tubes on wood, floorboards, ceilings, brick work or in underfloor areas
• Trees show signs of colonys & mounds
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?
