Termite Protection & Inspection

Termite Removal

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are generally employed for termite management in Lindfield; either the production of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor areas can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, then white ants may detect the gaps and gain ingress via them.

The most widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants can also transfer the chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures that they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this fashion, the colony can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, however they’re usually installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Environmentally friendly

The Indications Of Termite Infestation

General signs that your structure has a termite infestation:

• Holes in the drywall or timber
• Wood is damaged or disintegrating
• Mud Tubes on wood, floor boards, ceilings, brick work or in underfloor areas
• Nests or mounds below trees

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites can do significant amounts of damage to a home. If the infestation becomes serious enough, the dwelling could potentially become unlivable.
