Remedy For Termite Infestation

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight around Australia. When they infest a property, termites can rapidly create a large amount of damage, making it vital to call your trusted Turrella termite protection provider.

Termite Removal/Prevention Strategies

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Turrella; either the creation of a termite barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Call us today for more details on the price for termite management and treatment.

Generally, in Turrella, termite experts make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred type management strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some distinct benefits and should also be considered.

It is important to first have a specialist termite exterminator come out to the building to look at the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify the gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated places to non-treated places, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is lower.

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

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites in the property, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a flow on effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in instances where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

Baiting System Benefits

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger to children or pets
• Eco-friendly

The Telltale Indications Of A Termite Infestation

Typical signs that your structure is infested with termites:

• Holes in the drywall and/or wood
• Damaged or collapsing wood
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying from the colony

How Problematic Are Termites?

If left untreated, even just one nest of white ants is capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The building can even become unsafe because of the severity of the issue, and in the extreme, can even be unrepairable.
