Prevention & Pest Control Against Termites

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Bass Hill every year, making termite prevention so vital.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments alter with regards to their goals and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are 2 major termite management strategies; attempting to eliminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which try to produce a barrier between the termites and the structure to be protected. Phone us today to learn more about the cost of termite preventions.

Termite prevention in Bass Hill homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys may have some definate benefits that cannot be ignored.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some places cannot be treated because of access issues, the termites may detect the gaps and attain access via them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they do not stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, termites will go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Because the termites do not identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated places, and thus access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most commonly used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as eight years after application.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from your building by positioning bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the house design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
