Termite Protection & Treatment

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common within Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Sutherland each year. That’s why termite pest control and prevention is so important.

Removing & Managing Termites

Each situation is unique, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies used are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and eradicating the termite colony entirely by baiting. To learn more about what these treatments cost, give us a call today.

Termite pest control in Sutherland homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys may have some definate benefits that should not be ignored.

It is important to have the white ant situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to evaluate the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, they provide great protection for treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them once again.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

Since termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

A commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

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

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 catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
