Termite Treatment & Protection

White ant or termite infestations are quite common around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Dover Heights each year. That is why termite treatment and prevention is so important.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at each quickly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite control: first is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is with chemical treatments to create a barrier between the building and the colony. Call us today to learn more about the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Chemical treatments are the more typical treatment to eliminate termites in Dover Heights homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has some distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.

To ensure the job is done correctly, it is crucial to have a trusted termite exterminator in to review the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided. So they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all areas can be reached, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can recognise those gaps and gain access through them.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a flow on effect.

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

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the wood that they have been infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the nest is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in positions where there is 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 especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• Eco-friendly

• Wood is damaged or decaying
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the structure
• Nests or mounds below trees
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony
