Termite Removal & Prevention

You will find several types of termite infestations therefore the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they will going to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Kenthurst, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that shouldn’t be dismissed.

Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection in treated areas. If not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify those gaps and gain access through them.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after contact with them. In addition, termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated places to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite access via non-treated gaps is far lower.

The most common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

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 especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to children & pets
• Environmentally smart
