Termite Protection & Control

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge levels of damage to buildings in Redfern each year, creating a large need for termite protection.

Termite Removal/Protection Systems

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at each briefly. There are two main strategies performed for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the home and the termites. Call us today for more information on the costs associated with various treatment options.

White ant protection in Redfern residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may have some distinct benefits that can not be ignored.

It is of great importance to engage the services of an experienced termite exterminator to check over your residence so the damage can be fully assessed.

Are you currently looking for termite protection for your home and want to identify the control available in Redfern that will be most suited? Are you searching for a Redfern service that is highly reliable for control of white ants? We will assist you to make a well informed decision, and offer affordable prices for termite protection.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated due to access problems, the white ants will identify the gaps and attain access through them.

The often commonly utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

The most common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be exterminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Baiting System Benefits

• Not affected by weather
• Safe for use around kids and pets
