Termite Extermination & Inspection

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge levels of damage to buildings across Menai every year, creating a strong requirement for termite extermination.

Termite Removal

There are several types of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are likely to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Termite extermination in Menai homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can bring some definate advantages that can not be ignored.

It is highly recommended to engage the expertise of a professional termite exterminator to check over your house in order that the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or areas can not be treated because of access issues, then termites will identify the gaps and gain access via them.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

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

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the dwelling design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.
