In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Banksia each year, making termite treatment so important.

Termite Removal/Protection Strategies

Termite treatments vary with regards to their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are 2 major termite management strategies; trying to eliminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that aim to produce a barrier between the termites and the building to be protected. Call us today to learn more about the cost of termite treatments.

Typically, in Banksia, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred method management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some areas can’t be treated due to access problems, then termites will detect the breaks and attain access via them.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they pass over the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they do not recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

In this fashion, the nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically placed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the residence design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for kids and pets
