Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold amounts of damage to houses throughout Richmond annually, creating a strong requirement for termite removal.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

There are several kinds of termite situations and so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite management systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Richmond, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that shouldn’t be ignored.

It’s wise to first get a professional white ant exterminator visit the building to assess the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites can identify these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since termites don’t detect non-repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

The regularly applied non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a structure by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow colony members.

The entire colony may be destroyed in this way, regardless of whether the location of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

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

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for children and pets
• Environmentally Smart

Common Signs That You Have Termites

Typical signs that your home has a termite infestation:

• Small holes found in drywall and/or wood
• Wood which is damaged and collapsing
• The presence of "mud tubes" on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the home
• Nests or mounds in tree areas
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming from the colony

How Problematic Are Termites?

It surprises many people to learn that white ants can cause a lot of harm to buildings. In fact, just one colony of termites can render a home unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
