Termite Treatment & Protection

White ant or termite infestations are quite frequent in Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Lindfield annually. That is why termite prevention and control is so important.

Termite Removal

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are generally used for termite management in Lindfield; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Call us today for more information on the price for termite treatment and management.

Typically, in Lindfield, termite experts make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has distinct advantages and should be considered.

It is important to call in an experienced termite exterminator to check out your home and evaluate the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite access via non-treated gaps is far lower.

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they have been attacking. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this manner, the entire nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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 particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
