Protection & Control Against Termites

Termite or white ant infestations are rather common around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Gordon each year. That’s why termite protection and control is very important.

Removing & Managing Termites

Each situation is different, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies employed are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and eliminating the termite colony entirely by baiting. For additional details on what these treatments cost, give us a call now.

Chemical treatments are the more standard treatment to eliminate termites in Gordon homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

It’s vital to call in a specialist termite exterminator to visit your house and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided. So they provide excellent protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and get access through them.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because the termites do not detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is restricted.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood they were infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the colony 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 more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically placed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the dwelling design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets

How To Tell If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

Here are the signs you have a termite infestation:

• Minute holes in the drywall and timber
• Damaged or decaying timber
• "Mud tubes" appearing on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites (white ants) are capable of doing a great deal of damage to a structure. If the problem becomes severe enough, the property may become unsafe.
