Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge quantities of damage to houses across Hebersham every year, creating a strong requirement for termite prevention.

Termite Removal & Management

You can find different types of termite situations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the specialists, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are a more traditional treatment to kill termites in Hebersham homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has some distinct advantages which should not be ignored.

It is important to first have a specialist termite exterminator come out to the home to look at the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide excellent protection in treated locations. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access via them.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites can’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

The most commonly used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a home by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the nest can be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar manner, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Flexible protection against termites
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• Safe for children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
