Around Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a massive amount of property damage each year. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Penrith are encouraged to find quality termite prevention services.

Termite Removal

Termite treatments change in terms of their aims and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are 2 main termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected. Contact us today for more information on the cost of termite preventions.

Termite prevention in Penrith homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys can have some definate benefits that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and so they don’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, white ants will go over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they are attacking. This kills those termites that consume 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 nest will be exterminated, even if 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 Baiting Systems are usually installed around 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 white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all your family including pets
• Eco-friendly
