Termite Prevention & Removal

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Macquarie Park each year. That’s why termite prevention and removal is extremely important.

Termite Control & Protection

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each quickly. There are two main management strategies performed for termite pest control: one is the complete eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is with chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the building and the colony. Contact us today for additional information on the costs associated with the various treatment options.

In Macquarie Park, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that should not be dismissed.

To ensure the job is carried out right, it’s vital to get a specialist white ant exterminator in to review the damage.

If you believe that your home or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Give us a call to get the assistance of the best termite prevention team covering the Macquarie Park area. We can help you to make a well informed decision about this crucial service, and offer you a very competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites can also transfer these chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Because the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which produces a flow on result.

In this fashion, the colony can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they are generally placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits
