Termite Protection & Removal

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge levels of damage to houses in Cabarita each year, creating a strong requirement for termite protection.

Termite Removal/Protection Processes

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each briefly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite pest control: first is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to create a barrier between the home and the colony. Contact us today for more information about the costs involved with various treatment options.

White ant protection in Cabarita residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can have some distinct advantages that can not be ignored.

To ensure the job is carried out right, it is vital to get a specialist termite exterminator in to assess the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for protection on treated places. However, if the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can identify these breaks and again access the property.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as 5 years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

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

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the colony can be eliminated even when the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
