Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge levels of damage to homes throughout Gladesville annually, creating a strong requirement for termite treatment.

Termite Removal

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are commonly employed for termite management in Gladesville; either the production of a termite barrier between the structure and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Contact us today for more details about the price for termite management and treatment.

Chemical remedies are the more typical treatment to kill white ants in Gladesville homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has distinct advantages that should not be forgotten.

It’s wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator come out to the home to fully evaluate the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites easily identify and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or areas can’t be treated as a result of access problems, then white ants can detect the breaks and attain access through those areas.

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

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

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

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are used in a similar way, however they’re frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the design of the home may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

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

The Telltale Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you could have a termite infestation include:

• Holes in the drywall and wood
• Damaged or disintegrating wood
• Presence of mud tubes on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Obvious termite nests & mounds in trees close to the structure
• Winged termites or alates can be seen swarming from the colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

When left untreated, even just one nest of termites are capable of doing a surprising amount of damage. The house can even become unsafe because of the significance of the infestation, and in extreme cases, can even be irreparable.
