Prevention & Treatment Against Termites

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Rushcutters Bay annually, making termite prevention so crucial.

Termite Removal/Prevention Strategies

You will find various kinds of termite infestations and so the best treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are the more traditional treatment to get rid of white ants in Rushcutters Bay homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.

It is advantageous to engage the services of an experienced white ant exterminator to check out your home in order that the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t identify non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The commonly used non-repellent chemical is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of up to 8 years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be exterminated, even though you do not 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.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the home design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems
