Removal & Inspection Against Termites

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge amounts of damage to houses in Kings Cross every year, creating a large requirement for termite removal.

Termite Removal

You can find several types of termite infestations therefore the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will going to apply one of two general termite prevention systems. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

White ant removal in Kings Cross residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may bring some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover the gaps and gain ingress.

The regularly widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non-repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The most frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronilthat has a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In-Ground Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for all your family including pets
• Environmentally Friendly

How To Identify If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

Typical signs that your building has a termite infestation:

• Minute holes in drywall and/or timber
• Wood is decaying or damaged
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, wood, ceiling and sub floor
• Mounds or nests can be found in nearby trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

What Damage Can Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of white ants is capable of causing quite a lot of damage to a house. If the problem becomes severe enough, the home could potentially become unsafe.
