Termite Treatment & Protection

White ant or termite infestations are quite common within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Burwood annually. That is why termite inspection and extermination is so important.

Termite Control/Protection Systems

Termite treatments change in terms of their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; attempting to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to make a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected. Call us today for additional information on the cost of termite inspections.

In Burwood, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be ignored.

It’s vital to call in an experienced termite exterminator to check out your home and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide good protection for treated areas. If not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the home by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. This kills the termites that eat 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.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building can make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Environmentally friendly

The Warning Signs Of Termite Infestation

Here are some telltale signs of a termite infestation:

• Little holes found in drywall and/or timber
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Trees in the area show signs of nests & mounds
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

If left untreated, even just one nest of white ants can do an unexpected amount of damage. The building can even become unsafe because of the significance of the issue, and in the extreme, can be unrepairable.
