Termite Treatment & Pest Control

White ant or termite infestations are rather frequent in Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Chiswick Sydney annually. That is why termite treatment and pest control is essential.

Termite Removal

Termite treatments vary in terms of their goals and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; attempting to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to make a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Phone us today to learn more about the cost of termite treatments.

White ant treatment in Chiswick residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys may have some definate advantages that can not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

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

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Because the termites can’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain access through possible breaks.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the wood. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on effect.

An entire nest may be destroyed in this manner, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed termite activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically installed throughout the property to provide an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to create.
