Treatment & Pest Control Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge levels of damage to properties across Dawes Point every year, creating a large need for termite treatment.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let us look at each quickly. There’s two main strategies conducted for termite pest control: first is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the building and the white ants. Call us today for more information on the costs associated with various treatment options.

In Dawes Point, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be ignored.

It is important to first get a professional white ant exterminator visit the building to fully look at the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is a gap in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they were attacking. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the colony can be eliminated even when the location of the colony is unknown. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, but they are frequently placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the dwelling may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family including pets
• Environmentally friendly

Signs You're Dealing With Termite Infestation

Typical signs that your property has a termite infestation:

• Small holes in the drywall and timber
• Wood which is damaged and breaking down
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on wood, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork and/or in underfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the colony

Can Termites Badly Damage My Dwelling?

When left untreated, even just one colony of termites are capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The building may even become unlivable as a result of the significance of the problem, and in extreme cases, can even be unrepairable. Speak to Dawes Point Termite Pest Control today to organise a thorough evaluation of your Dawes Point property by one of our termite treatment experts.
