Pest Control & Protection Against Termites

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. Once they infest a house, termites can rapidly create a lot of damage, making it vital to call your trusted The Ponds termite pest control provider.

Termite Removal

Each situation is unique, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies employed are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting.

Chemical remedies are a more standard strategy to eliminate white ants in The Ponds homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct benefits which should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated as a result of access issues, then white ants will identify the gaps and gain ingress through them.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is a lot less likely.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood 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 that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be eliminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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 are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a home makes it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
