Prevention & Inspection Against Termites

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge amounts of damage to homes across Lewisham on a yearly basis, creating a large requirement for termite prevention.

Termite Removal

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Lewisham; either the creation of a termite barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting.

Chemical remedies are a more standard treatment to eliminate termites in Lewisham homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that cannot be forgotten.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated areas aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect the gaps and access the home.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants can often pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites don’t identify non repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they were attacking. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

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

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Eco friendly

• Wood in the structure has small holes
