Protection & Pest Control Against Termites

Termite or white ant infestations are rather frequent within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Frenchs Forest annually. That’s why termite protection and pest control is essential.

Termite Removal/Prevention Strategies

Termite treatments change with regards to their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 main termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments that try to produce a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected. Call us today for more information on the cost of termite protections.

Chemical treatments are the more typical strategy to eliminate white ants in Frenchs Forest homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

It is necessary to have your termite situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to assess the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise the gaps and can potentially gain access.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as five years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a compounding result.

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

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the termites to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which produces a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a building will make it tricky to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
