Termite Control Strathfield

White ant or termite infestations are quite common within Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Strathfield Sydney annually. That’s why termite control and inspection is very important.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each briefly. There’s two main management strategies carried out for termite pest control: first is the complete eradication of the colony with baiting, and the other is using chemical treatment to create a barrier between the house and the colony. Contact us today for additional information on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Chemical treatments are a more standard treatment to get rid of white ants in Strathfield homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct advantages which cannot be forgotten.

To make sure the job is done correctly, it’s advised to have a specialist white ant exterminator in to assess the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, they provide excellent protection for treated areas. If not all locations are reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access via them.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

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

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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 encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding result.

The entire colony may be eradicated in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.
