Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold levels of damage to houses across North St Marys each year, creating a strong need for termite protection.

Termite Removal & Prevention

There are various kinds of termite situations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite management systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In North St Marys, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that shouldn’t be ignored.

It’s wise to first get a professional white ant exterminator come out to the home to fully evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals easy to identify and an excellent deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants may recognise the gaps and could potentially gain access.

The often frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members 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 less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The often applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the house by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

An entire nest may be eliminated in this manner, regardless of whether the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a structure makes it difficult to create effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
