Termite Protection & Pest Control

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and houses in Bonnet Bay every year, making termite protection so vital.

Termite Control & Protection

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are typically utilised for termite management in Bonnet Bay; either the creation of a termite barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Call us today for additional information about the cost for termite management and treatment.

Generally, in Bonnet Bay, termite specialists will make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has distinct benefits and should also be considered.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they go over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because termites can not identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been 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 nest members.

In this fashion, the entire nest may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a building will make it tricky to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Not impacted by weather

Can Termites Damage My Residence?
