Remedy For Termite Infestation

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Bungarribee annually, making termite prevention so important.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at each quickly. There’s two main strategies conducted for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and the other is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the residence and the white ants. Contact us today for more information about the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Chemical treatments are the more traditional strategy to get rid of white ants in Bungarribee homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.

It’s important to get in an expert termite exterminator to check out your property and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them very useful for providing protection on treated areas. However, if the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense the gaps and access the building.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may also pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Since termites don’t identify non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as eight years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the house by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for children and pets
• Environmentally friendly

How You Can Tell If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

General signs that your structure is infested with termites:

• Holes in timber panels
• Wood that is damaged and breaking down
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, timber, ceiling and/or subfloor areas
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Winged termites (or alates) can be noticed swarming from the colony

How Problematic Can Termites Be?

When left untreated, even a single colony of termites is capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The building can even become unlivable as a result of the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, may even be unrepairable.
