Termite Protection & Treatment

Around Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a massive amount of property damage annually. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Bardwell Park Sydney are encouraged to find quality termite treatment services.

Termite Removal & Management

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each briefly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is with chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the building and the white ants. Contact us today for more information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Generally, in Bardwell Park, termite experts will make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred kind control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some specific advantages and should be considered.

It is important to have your white ant situation checked out by a professional pest controller to assess the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can discover these gaps and gain ingress.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they identify no difference between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they have been eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

The entire nest can be eliminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the termite activity.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

How Problematic Are Termites?

If left untreated, even a single nest of white ants is capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The house can even become unlivable due to the severity of the problem, and in the extreme, can even be unrepairable.
