Treatment For Termite Infestation

Around Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a significant level of property damage every year. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of Seven Hills are encouraged to seek reliable termite control services.

White ant control in Seven Hills residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys can have some definate benefits that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect these gaps and again access the property.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 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.

Baiting System Advantages

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Not impacted by weather
• No danger to children or pets
• Environmentally Smart
