Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge levels of damage to properties across Plumpton every year, creating a large need for termite prevention.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

The two major termite management strategies; attempting to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that try to produce a barrier between the termites and the building being protected.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The most frequently applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

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

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the residence by placing bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

The entire nest can be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

How You Can Identify If Your House Is Infested With Termites

Here are the common signs you have termites:

• Small holes found in drywall and/or timber
• Wood that is damaged and collapsing
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, timber, ceiling and/or subfloor
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees near the structure
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Problematic Can Termites Be?
