Termite Treatment & Protection

In Australia, termites are often called ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a significant level of property damage every year. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of Melrose Park are advised to seek reliable termite removal services.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at each briefly. There are two main strategies performed for termite pest control: first is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to make a barrier between the building and the termites. Contact us today to find out more on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are the more traditional treatment to get rid of termites in Melrose Park homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily identified 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 identify these gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus causing a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to erradicate termites in your home, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the wood. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire nest can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
