Removal & Inspection Against Termites

White ant or termite infestations are rather common in Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Abbotsbury annually. That’s why termite removal and inspection is essential.

Termite Removal/Protection Strategies

Termite treatments vary with regards to their goals and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. The two main termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to produce a barrier in between the termites and the building to be protected.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Because the termites can’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated locations, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in the residence, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait instead of the wood. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on effect.

Ongoing 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 colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a structure can make it hard to create effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Unimpacted by weather
• No danger to children or pets
• Ecologically Friendly

• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony
