Termite Inspection & Control

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge quantities of damage to buildings throughout Padstow Heights on a yearly basis, creating a strong requirement for termite inspection.

Termite Removal

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Padstow Heights; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Call us today for additional information on the cost for termite management and treatment.

Chemical remedies are the more traditional strategy to get rid of white ants in Padstow Heights homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct benefits that should not be forgotten.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection in treated locations. However, if not all locations are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and get access through them.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Because the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore enticing the pests to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the structure design means that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe to use around kids and pets
• Environmentally sound
