Treatment For Termite Infestation

Around Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a massive level of property damage every year. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Rosebery Sydney are advised to find quality termite pest control services.

Termite Removal

There are several kinds of termite infestations so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are going to apply one of two general termite prevention systems. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Rosebery, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be ignored.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide good protection in treated areas. If not all areas can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can identify those gaps and gain access via them.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can not detect non repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The regularly common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

In this fashion, the whole colony can be eliminated even when the position of the colony isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

An In Ground System is used in a similar way, but they are generally placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.
