Termite Extermination & Prevention

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

Termite Removal & Management

Each situation is different, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies utilised are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and eradicating the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatments cost, give us a call today.

Termite extermination in Woolloomooloo homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may bring some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

To ensure the job is done right, it’s advised to get a specialist termite exterminator in to look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, they provide excellent protection for treated locations. However, if not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and get access through them once again.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they will not avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will go through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual insects transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites do not detect non repellents, they will not recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

The frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years following application.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. 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.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they’re usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• No danger to kids & pets
• Eco-friendly

Signs You're Dealing With Termite Infestation

Here are some telltale signs of a termite infestation:

• Wood in the dwelling has holes
• Wood which is damaged and crumbling
• Mud Tubes on the timber, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork and/or in underfloor areas
• Trees in the area show signs of nests & mounds
• Winged termites (or alates) may be noticed swarming from the nest

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

If left untreated, even just one colony of termites can do an unexpected amount of destruction. The building can even become unusable due to the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, can be unrepairable.
