Removal & Prevention Against Termites

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge levels of damage to homes throughout Summer Hill on a yearly basis, creating a large need for termite removal.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Summer Hill; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for more details on the price for termite treatment and management.

White ant removal in Summer Hill homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may have some distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can recognise the gaps and could sometimes get in.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will also pass the chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to other colony members.

An entire colony can be eradicated in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house can make it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for children and pets

Can A Colony Of Termites Really Damage My Building?
