Termite Removal/Management Processes

You will find several kinds of termite situations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the professionals, they are going to apply one of two general termite removal strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Avalon Beach, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ benefits that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants may identify these gaps and can potentially gain access.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus resulting in a compounding result.

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

The most often used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat has a lasting effect of as many as 8 years following treatment.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to get rid of termites in the home, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, thus causing a flow on effect.

In this manner, the whole colony may be eliminated even though the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

An In-Ground System is utilised in a similar fashion, however they’re generally placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the boundary.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Green

Common Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

These are the common signs you have a termite infestation:

• Small holes in the drywall and timber
• Wood which is damaged and breaking down
• The presence of "mud tubes" on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the home
• Trees in the area show signs of colonys & mounds
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

How Destructive Are Termites?

If left untreated, even just one colony of white ants is capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The building can even become unsafe due to the significance of the problem, and in the extreme, may be irreparable.
