Termite Prevention & Control

In Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a significant level of property damage each year. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Pagewood are encouraged to seek quality termite prevention services.

Termite Removal/Management Processes

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are generally utilised for termite management in Pagewood; either the production of a white ant barrier between the structure and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for more information about the cost for termite treatment and management.

Generally, in Pagewood, termite experts will use a chemical treatment as the preferred kind removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has distinct advantages and should be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants can recognise the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The regularly commonly utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites don’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access through gaps.

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a building by placing bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are attacking. 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 that bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. 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 locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a house can make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
