Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termite or white ant infestations are quite frequent around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Schofields annually. That’s why termite extermination and pest control is essential.

Termite Removal & Prevention

There are various types of termite infestations and so the best treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they are likely to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical remedies are a more typical strategy to kill white ants in Schofields homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct advantages which cannot be forgotten.

It is important to engage the expertise of a professional pest exterminator to look at your property so that the damage can be fully reviewed.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning 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 return to the colony and 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 observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be elimited 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 particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Not afflicted with weather
• No danger to kids & pets
• Eco-friendly
