Termite Inspection & Removal

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Mona Vale each year. That is why termite inspection and removal is so important.

Termite Removal/Protection Processes

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Mona Vale; either the production of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Termite inspection in Mona Vale homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys can bring some definate benefits that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations are reached, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can recognise the gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a commonly used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically sound
