Termite Prevention & Protection

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Paddington each year, making termite prevention so important.

Termite Removal

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly utilised for termite management in Paddington; either the production of a white ant barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Contact us today for more information about the price for termite treatment and management.

White ant prevention in Paddington residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys can have some distinct advantages that can not be ignored.

It is important to have the termite situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to look at the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or places can not be treated due to access difficulties, then termites can detect those gaps and gain ingress via those areas.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they don’t stay away from the chemical. Because of this, white ants go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most often used non-repellent option is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as 8 years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be exterminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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 Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
• An environmentally smart solution

Signs That You May Have Termites

General signs that your house has a termite infestation:

• Little holes in drywall or timber
• Damaged & decaying timber
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the colony

Can Termites Really Damage My Home?

It surprises many homeowners to discover that white ants could cause a significant amount of harm to buildings. In fact, just one nest of termites can render a home unlivable if the problem is severe enough.
