Termite Protection & Extermination

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

In Turrella, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be ignored.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants can recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites do not identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are much less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the structures they were eating up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

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

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