Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. When they infest a house, termites can rapidly create a large amount of damage, making it essential to call your reliable Sackville termite protection provider.

Termite Removal/Management Systems

There are various types of termite infestations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you call in the specialists, they are likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Sackville, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that should not be ignored.

It is vital to get in an experienced termite exterminator to check out your house and assess the damage.

If you think that your residence or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Call us and get the advice of the most experienced termite protection team covering the Sackville area. We will assist you to make an educated decision on this important service, and offer you a competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain access.

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

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will also pass the chemicals to other members of the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and people that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this way, the entire nest can be sradicated even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Baiting Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems
