Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight around Australia. Once they infest a residence, termites can rapidly create a great deal of damage, making it important to call your trusted Kearns termite prevention provider.

Managing & Removing Termites

You can find different types of termite infestations and so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite prevention systems. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Generally, in Kearns, termite experts will use a chemical treatment as the preferred form management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

It’s wise to first get a professional termite exterminator come out to the building to assess the damage.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites will often transfer the chemicals on to other members in the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the structures that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

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

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets

How To Tell If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

• Minute holes in drywall and/or timber
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• "Mud tubes" appearing on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Trees in the area show signs of nests & mounds
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the nest

Can Termites Badly Damage My Property?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of white ants is capable of causing quite a lot of damage to a house. If the infestation becomes serious enough, your structure could become unsafe.
