Termite Removal & Pest Control

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge amounts of damage to buildings in Pagewood each year, creating a large requirement for termite removal.

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

Each situation is unique, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. There are two strategies employed are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and extermination the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatment options cost, give us a call now.

Chemical treatments are the more traditional treatment to get rid of white ants in Pagewood homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has distinct benefits that cannot be ignored.

It’s important to first get a specialist white ant exterminator visit the property to assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

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

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will also transfer the chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites can not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a dwelling by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

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 exterminated even if its location isn’t known.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather
• Safe to use around children and pets
• Ecologically sound

The Indications Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you might have a termite infestation include:

• Small holes bored in timber panels
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Winged termites or alates may be noticed swarming from the colony

Can Termites Damage My House?

If left untreated, even a single nest of termites is capable of doing a surprising amount of destruction. The home can even become unusable due to the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, may even be irreparable.
