Termite Removal/Prevention Strategies

You can find different types of termite situations so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the pros, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Typically, in Richmond Lowlands, termite specialists use a chemical treatment as the preferred kind control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some distinct advantages and should also be considered.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants can identify the gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have contact with them. In addition, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your home by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets

Signs You're Facing A Termite Infestation

There are several signs that your house has a white ant infestation:

• Small holes found in drywall and/or wood
• Damaged or disintegrating wood
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites or alates can be seen leaving the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?

When left untreated, even just one colony of white ants is capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The structure may even become unusable as a result of the severity of the issue, and in the extreme, may even be irreparable.
