Termite Prevention & Protection

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold amounts of damage to houses across Oatlands every year, creating a large requirement for termite prevention.

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

There are several treatments possible and each has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Oatlands; either the production of a white ant barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Call us today for more info about the price for termite management and treatment.

In Oatlands, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that should not be ignored.

It is important to have your white ant situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and gain entry.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which produces a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a swelling makes it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Ecologically smart

How You Can Identify If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

General signs that your residence is infested with termites:

• Wood in the structure has small holes
• Timber is disintegrating or damaged
• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the building
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the termite colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?

It surprises many people to discover that white ants could do a significant amount of damage to structures. In fact, even just one colony of termites can render a house unusable if the problem is severe enough. Set your mind at ease; call Oatlands Termite Pest Control and have one of our termite prevention specialists examine your Oatlands home as soon as possible.
