Inspection & Protection Against Termites

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge amounts of damage to homes throughout Kearns on a yearly basis, creating a strong need for termite inspection.

Termite Control/Prevention Systems

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at each briefly. There’s two main strategies conducted for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is using chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the residence and the white ants. Contact us today for more information about the costs involved with various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are a more typical treatment to eliminate termites in Kearns homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct advantages which should not be ignored.

It is of great importance to engage the expertise of a professional white ant exterminator to check over your residence in order that the damage can be thoroughly looked at.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect the gaps and again access the property.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

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

Given termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the potential for termite ingress via untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are often used to eliminate termites in the dwelling, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar manner, however they’re frequently situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family including pets
