Treatment For Termite Infestation

In Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a massive level of property damage annually. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of Holroyd are advised to find quality termite treatment services.

Termite Control & Protection

There are several types of termite infestations and so the best treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite management 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 termite colony with baiting techniques.

Termite treatment in Holroyd residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys may have some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

It is wise to first have a specialist termite exterminator come out to the house to fully evaluate the damage.

If you feel that your home or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Give us a call and get the advice of the best termite treatment team covering the Holroyd area. We can help you to make an educated decision about this vital service, and offer you a very competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated as a result of access issues, then white ants will detect those breaks and attain access through them.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they do not steer clear of the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The most commonly used non repellent option is Fipronil, which features a lasting effect of as many as eight years following application.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the timber 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 other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in positions where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful where the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• No danger for kids & pets
