Extermination & Inspection Against Termites

In Australia it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Eastgardens every year, making termite extermination so important.

Termite Removal

There are two strategies used are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting.

Chemical treatments are the more standard strategy to kill white ants in Eastgardens homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct benefits which cannot be ignored.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or areas can’t be treated as a result of access issues, then white ants may detect the gaps and attain access via them.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems can 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Environmentally sound
