Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termite or white ant infestations are quite frequent within Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Turramurra each year. That is why termite protection and extermination is essential.

Termite Control/Protection Strategies

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Turramurra; either the production of a termite barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Contact us today for more details about the price for termite treatment and management.

In Turramurra, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that shouldn’t be ignored.

It’s important to call in an expert termite exterminator to visit your premises and evaluate the damage.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain access.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a flow on and efficient result.

Because termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites in the residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, therefore creating a flow on effect.

In this fashion, the colony can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home makes it hard to have effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.

Signs You Are Facing Termite Infestation

Here are the telltale signs of a termite infestation:

• Timber in the home has tiny holes
• Wood which is damaged and breaking down
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the home
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the colony

Can A Colony Of Termites Damage My Dwelling?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites can cause a lot of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes serious enough, the property could potentially become unusable.
