Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold quantities of damage to properties in Five Dock annually, creating a strong need for termite treatment.

Termite Removal

There are different types of termite infestations and so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite protection processes. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Termite treatment in Five Dock residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can bring some distinct benefits that cannot be ignored.

It is important to have the termite situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to assess the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain access.

The most widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they were eating until recently. As well as killing the white ants 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 manner, the nest can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems may 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not affected by weather conditions
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Eco-friendly
