Termite Inspection & Pest Control

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold quantities of damage to properties throughout Woodcroft on a yearly basis, creating a large need for termite inspection.

Termite Removal/Protection Processes

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let us look at them quickly. There’s two main management strategies carried out for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is with chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the building and the white ants. Contact us today to find out more on the costs involved with various treatment options.

In Woodcroft, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be dismissed.

It is wise to first have a professional white ant exterminator come out to the home to assess the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will recognise these gaps and could potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they don’t steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites will move through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to eight years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the colony which results in a compounding result.

An entire nest can be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Eco-friendly
