Termite Inspection & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are quite frequent within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Mona Vale annually. That’s why termite inspection and treatment is so important.

Managing & Removing Termites

Each situation is different, 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 getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting.

Generally, in Mona Vale, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred type management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some distinct advantages and should be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may discover the gaps and gain access.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Because the termites can not identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible gaps.

The often used non repellent option is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years after treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to eliminate termites in your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the wood. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the position of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places 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 assist in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a swelling will make it challenging to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for all your family including pets
• Environmentally sound

How You Can Identify If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

Here are the common signs of a termite infestation:

• Small holes found in drywall and timber
• Damaged or collapsing timber
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, wood, ceiling or sub-floor areas
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying from the colony

How Problematic Are Termites?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites (white ants) are capable of doing a great deal of damage to a house. If the infestation becomes severe enough, the property could become unusable.
