Termite Treatment & Protection

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in North Narrabeen each year, making termite prevention so crucial.

Termite Removal

Termite treatments alter in terms of their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to produce a barrier between the termites and the building to be protected. Contact us today for additional info on the cost of termite preventions.

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

It’s important to first get a specialist white ant exterminator visit the house to fully look at the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is a commonly used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically placed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the building design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe to use around children and pets

• Trees in the area show signs of colonys & mounds
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming from the colony
