Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge levels of damage to buildings throughout Kirribilli each year, creating a strong need for termite protection.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are different kinds of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the pros, they are going to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are a more traditional treatment to kill termites in Kirribilli homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.

To ensure the job is carried out right, it’s vital to have a specialist pest exterminator in to assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify the gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Since the termites do not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites in the residence, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, thus creating a compounding result.

An entire nest may be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for youngsters and pets
