Termite Protection & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are rather common around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Collaroy each year. That is why termite pest control and prevention is so important.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Collaroy; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Contact us today for more details on the price for termite treatment and management.

Generally, in Collaroy, termite specialists use a chemical treatment as the preferred method control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some distinct benefits and should also be considered.

To make sure the job is done right, it’s vital to have a reliable white ant exterminator in to review the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection for treated areas. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated areas become disrupted, white ants can recognise the gaps and get access through them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and thus access via possible gaps is limited.

The often used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of up to 8 years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in locations where there is termite 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 particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Eco-friendly

Common Signs That You May Have Termites

Here are some telltale signs that you have a termite infestation:

• Miniscule holes in drywall or timber

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites is capable of causing a lot of damage to a structure. If the problem becomes serious enough, the structure may potentially become unusable.
