Protection & Control Against Termites

White ant or termite infestations are rather common around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Forest Glen each year. That is why termite protection and control is extremely important.

Termite Removal

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them quickly. There’s two main management strategies conducted for termite pest control: first is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and second is with chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the home and the termites. Call us today to find out more on the costs associated with the various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are a more standard treatment to get rid of termites in Forest Glen homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits which should not be forgotten.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants will recognise these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

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

As termites are unable to identify these non-repellents, they identify no distinction between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than 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.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a house will make it tricky to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
