Termite Protection & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are rather common within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Mortlake each year. That’s why termite removal and control is extremely important.

Removing & Managing Termites

You can find various kinds of termite situations and so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are 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 hope to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Generally, in Mortlake, termite specialists use a chemical treatment as the preferred kind control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

It’s important to bring in a professional termite exterminator to visit your premises and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical available today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a compounding result.

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

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the house by placing bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they have been attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Environmentally smart

The Telltale Indications Of Termite Infestation

Several signs that you could have a termite infestation include:

• Wood in the structure has small holes
• Wood that is damaged or crumbling
• Mud tubes appearing on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites (white ants) are capable of doing significant amounts of damage to a dwelling. If the infestation becomes bad enough, the house could potentially become unlivable.
