In Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a massive level of property damage each year. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Oatley are advised to find reliable termite pest control services.

Termite Removal & Prevention

There are several kinds of termite infestations therefore the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will likely to apply one of two general termite protection strategies. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

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

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The regularly commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is reduced.

The most commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as eight years following application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the whole termite colony will be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems can 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 useful 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 Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to children or pets
• Eco-friendly
