Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge amounts of damage to buildings in Strathfield South annually, creating a strong requirement for termite removal.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at each briefly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite pest control: first is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and next is with chemical treatment to make a barrier between the house and the colony. Call us today for additional information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Termite removal in Strathfield South homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may bring some definate advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is important to first have a specialist white ant exterminator visit the home to look at the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites may recognise these gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a building by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are attacking. This soon kills those termites that consume 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.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even when you don’t 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.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar way, but they’re generally situated around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the property may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Ecologically smart

The Telltale Indications Of Termite Infestation

General signs that your house has a termite infestation:

• Tiny holes in the drywall and/or timber
• Timber is crumbling or damaged
• "Mud tubes" appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Obvious termite nests & mounds in trees close to the home
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying around the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Do?

It surprises many homeowners to learn that termites are able to do a great deal of harm to buildings. In fact, a single nest of termites can render a house unlivable if the problem is severe enough.
