Termite Treatment & Protection

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Mount Pritchard annually, making termite pest control so vital.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at each briefly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and the other is with chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the building and the colony. Call us today to find out more on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are the more typical strategy to eliminate termites in Mount Pritchard homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that cannot be forgotten.

To make sure the job is carried out right, it is advised to have a specialist white ant exterminator in to review the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may identify these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures that they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this fashion, the whole nest may be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar fashion, they are typically installed throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for children and pets
• Environmentally sound

Common Signs You Have A Termite Infestation

There are many signs your house has a white ant infestation:

• Small holes in timber panels
• Damaged or collapsing timber
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, wood, ceiling and sub-floor areas
• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the nest

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

It surprises many homeowners to learn that termites may do a lot of harm to structures. In fact, even a single nest of termites can render a home unusable if the problem is severe enough.
