Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge amounts of damage to houses throughout Glenwood on a yearly basis, creating a strong need for termite protection.

Termite Removal

There are 2 major termite management strategies; trying to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to produce a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected. Call us today to learn more about the cost of termite protections.

Chemical remedies are a more typical treatment to get rid of white ants in Glenwood homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or places can’t be treated due to access problems, the white ants may detect those gaps and attain access via those areas.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a flow on result.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, however they are generally installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Impervious to weather conditions
• No danger to children or pets
• Eco-friendly

Common Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Wood in the structure has small holes
• Damaged or crumbling wood
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the dwelling
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of white ants is capable of causing significant amounts of damage to a structure. If the problem becomes serious enough, your property may potentially become unusable.
