Inspection & Removal Against Termites

Termite or white ant infestations are quite frequent in Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Penrith each year. That’s why termite inspection and removal is extremely important.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at them briefly. There’s two main strategies performed for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatments to create a barrier between the residence and the colony. Contact us today for more information on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

White ant inspection in Penrith residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may have some distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

It is wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator come out to the home to fully evaluate the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The often commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after contact with them. Additionally, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since termites cannot detect non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were eating 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 the bait to further colony members.

In this manner, the entire nest may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they are usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.
