Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold quantities of damage to properties across Abbotsbury annually, creating a large need for termite extermination.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

You will find different kinds of termite infestations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Typically, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Abbotsbury. However, there are several advantages to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is important to first get a professional termite exterminator come out to the building to fully look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated places. However, if the treated places are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can sense the breaks and again access the building.

The often commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t identified by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites will pass over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the chance for termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

The most common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the colony may be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more 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 particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger for children & pets
• Environmentally friendly
