Remedy For Termite Infestation

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

Termite Removal

Termite treatments vary in terms of their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are 2 major termite management strategies; attempting to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to make a barrier between the termites and the structure to be protected. Phone us today for more information on the price of termite preventions.

In Lidcombe, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be ignored.

It is important to engage the services of a specialist termite exterminator to check over your home in order that the damage can be fully looked at.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas are reached, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them once again.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Since the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain access through breaks.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a building by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

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

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the dwelling design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Baiting System Benefits

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Impervious to weather conditions
• No danger for the kids & pets
• Eco-friendly
