Extermination & Treatment Against Termites

In Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a significant amount of property damage each year. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Zetland are advised to find quality termite extermination services.

Removing & Managing Termites

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

White ant extermination in Zetland residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some definate benefits that can not be ignored.

It is important to have the white ant situation examined by a professional pest controller to assess the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites can’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your residence by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

An entire nest may be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a house can make it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically Smart

Signs That You Have Termites

There are several indications your dwelling suffers from a white ant infestation:

• Tiny holes found in drywall and/or timber
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on timber, floorboards, ceilings, brick work and in subfloor areas
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees near the structure
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

Termites may cause significant damage to structural parts in the building. When significant enough, the infestation can make a house unsafe for use. Contact Zetland Termite Pest Control today, and arrange for one of our termite extermination experts to drop by and examine your Zetland house.
