Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold quantities of damage to homes across Waverton annually, creating a large need for termite control.

Termite Removal/Protection Processes

Each situation is unique, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies employed are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and eradicating the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatment methods cost, give us a call today.

Chemical treatments are the more typical treatment to kill white ants in Waverton homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

It’s important to first get a specialist termite exterminator come out to the home to fully evaluate the damage.

If you think that your residence or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic.

We will assist you to make an educated decision on this important service, and offer you a competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, so they provide great protection for treated locations. If not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access via them once again.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress through untreated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a compounding effect.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Ecologically Smart

The Indications Of A Termite Infestation

Here are the common signs you have a termite infestation:

• Miniscule holes in the drywall or timber
• Wood that is damaged and disintegrating
• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the home
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest

Can Termites Badly Damage My Dwelling?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites can cause a great deal of damage to a dwelling. If the infestation becomes severe enough, your dwelling may potentially become unusable.
