Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold levels of damage to houses across Erskine Park on a yearly basis, creating a large requirement for termite prevention.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments change with regards to their goals and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to make a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected. Call us today to learn more about the price of termite preventions.

In Erskine Park, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be ignored.

It is wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator visit the building to look at the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and again access the building.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

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

The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar manner, however they’re usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to children & pets
• Eco-friendly
