Remedy For Termite Infestation

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge levels of damage to buildings across Grays Point each year, creating a large need for termite extermination.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are several treatments possible and each has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Grays Point; either the production of a termite barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Contact us today for more details on the price for termite treatment and management.

Generally, in Grays Point, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has distinct benefits and should also be considered.

It is of great importance to engage the services of a professional pest exterminator to check out your house so the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The regularly widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can often pass these chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Since termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they are attacking. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the home design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger for kids & pets
