Termite Inspection & Prevention

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. When they infest a home, termites can rapidly cause a lot of damage, making it important to call your trusted Richmond termite inspection provider.

Termite Control & Protection

You will find various kinds of termite infestations and so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the pros, they are going to apply one of two general termite protection systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

White ant inspection in Richmond residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may have some definate benefits that should not be ignored.

It is vital to have the white ant situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to assess the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain entry.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they won’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, termites will go over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual termites pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most often used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a residual life of as many as 8 years after treatment.

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 termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar way, however they’re usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are useful when the design of the house may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Baiting System Benefits

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
