Termite Control Whalan

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold amounts of damage to houses throughout Whalan every year, creating a strong need for termite control.

Termite Removal

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Whalan; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for more info about the cost for termite treatment and management.

Chemical remedies are the more standard strategy to get rid of termites in Whalan homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct benefits that cannot be ignored.

It’s important to first get a specialist termite exterminator come out to the home to fully look at the situation.

So you already know there is a termite problem and want the most effective control on offer in Whalan? Do you need to find a reliable termite control service in Whalan? We can help you to make the right decision on the best options for your residence along with providing competitive prices.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide great protection in treated locations. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access via them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise untreated and treated places, and thus access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the home by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they are attacking. 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.

The entire colony can be destroyed in this way, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar manner, but they’re generally placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are especially useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for all your family including pets
• Eco friendly

Signs That You Have Termites

A number of signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Holes in timber panels
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• "Mud tubes" appearing on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite colony

Can A Colony Of Termites Really Damage My House?

When left untreated, even just one nest of termites are capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The structure may even become unsafe due to the severity of the infestation, and in the extreme, can even be unrepairable.
