Treatment & Inspection Against Termites

Around Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a significant level of property damage every year. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Hornsby are advised to seek quality termite treatment services.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at each quickly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is using chemical treatment to create a barrier between the home and the colony. Call us today for additional information about the costs involved with various treatment options.

Chemical remedies are a more typical strategy to eliminate termites in Hornsby homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct advantages which cannot be ignored.

It’s wise to first get a specialist termite exterminator visit the home to fully assess the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and can potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual termites will often transfer the chemicals to other members of the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger to children & pets
• Environmentally Smart
