Protection & Inspection Against Termites

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are generally used for termite management in Berkshire Park; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain access.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

As termites are unable to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather conditions
