Prevention & Protection Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge amounts of damage to buildings across Lansdowne on a yearly basis, creating a large need for termite prevention.

Termite Removal

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; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which try to make a barrier between the termites and the building to be protected. Phone us today for additional info on the price of termite preventions.

Generally, in Lansdowne, termite specialists make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some specific advantages and should be considered.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can sense these gaps and access the home.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites may often pass these chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be eliminated, even if you do not 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 may 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 important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
