Termite Removal & Treatment

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Darlington annually, making termite removal so important.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

You will find various types of termite infestations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite management strategies. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical treatments are a more traditional strategy to eliminate white ants in Darlington homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct benefits which cannot be forgotten.

It’s important to first have a professional white ant exterminator visit the property to assess the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated locations. However, if the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can detect the breaks and access the property.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they won’t stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants move through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

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

The commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to eight years after treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole colony can be eliminated even though the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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

Baiting System Advantages

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe for all your family & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
