Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Chipping Norton each year, making termite prevention so important.

Termite Removal

Each situation is different, 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 eradicating the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatments cost, give us a call now.

Chemical remedies are the more typical treatment to eliminate termites in Chipping Norton homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct advantages which should not be ignored.

To ensure the job is carried out right, it’s vital to have a reliable white ant exterminator in to review the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can identify the gaps and once again access the building.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of up to 5 years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will move through 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 creating a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the possibility of termite ingress via non-treated gaps is much lower.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a compounding result.

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

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar way, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
