Termite Prevention & Pest Control

Around Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a massive amount of property damage every year. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Leppington are encouraged to seek quality termite prevention services.

Termite Control/Prevention Systems

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at them quickly. There are two main strategies conducted for termite pest control: first is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and the other is with chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the house and the white ants. Call us today for additional information about the costs associated with various treatment options.

Termite prevention in Leppington residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may have some distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is advantageous to engage the services of a specialist white ant exterminator to check out your structures so that the damage can be fully assessed.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants may often pass these chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

Since termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the residence by placing bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a swelling will make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Unimpacted by weather
