Remedy For Termite Infestation

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold quantities of damage to houses throughout Sefton annually, creating a strong need for termite inspection.

Termite Removal/Protection Strategies

Each situation is different, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies utilised are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatment methods cost, give us a call today.

White ant inspection in Sefton homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys can have some definate benefits that should not be ignored.

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

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain access.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual termites can also pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

Because the termites can not detect these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a residence by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a structure can make it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
