Cure For Termite Infestation

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common in Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Sydney annually. That is why termite inspection and control is extremely important.

Termite Removal

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them quickly. There are two main strategies performed for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the home and the white ants. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are the more traditional strategy to kill white ants in Sydney homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct advantages which should not be ignored.

It’s wise to first have a professional termite exterminator visit the house to fully evaluate the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can identify these gaps and could potentially gain access.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire nest can be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a house will make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
