Prevention & Treatment Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold levels of damage to buildings across Paddington every year, creating a strong need for termite prevention.

Termite Control/Prevention Systems

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at them quickly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and the other is with chemical treatments to make a barrier between the home and the termites. Call us today to find out more about the costs associated with various treatment options.

In Paddington, 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 dismissed.

To make sure the job is carried out correctly, it’s vital to get a specialist pest exterminator in to look at the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites can recognise these gaps and can sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites can not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access via breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Termite Control 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 white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building can make it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for all your family & pets
• An environmentally smart solution

Signs That You May Have Termites

These are the common signs you have a termite infestation:

• Holes in timber panels or drywall
• Wood is disintegrating or damaged
• Mud Tubes on wood, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork or in underfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Winged termites or alates can be seen swarming from the nest

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

It surprises many people to discover that termites can cause a lot of damage to structures. In fact, even just one colony of termites can render a home unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
