Termite Control/Protection Systems

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Allambie Heights; either the production of a termite barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of up to five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is frequently used to eliminate termites from your residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this manner, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

Common Signs That You May Have Termites

These are the common signs you have a termite infestation:

• Wood in the house has tiny holes
• Wood is damaged or decaying
• Presence of mud tubes on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Winged termites or alates can be noticed leaving the colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of white ants are capable of doing a great deal of damage to a home. If the problem becomes serious enough, the structure could potentially become unusable.
