Treatment & Removal Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge quantities of damage to properties across Kearns each year, creating a strong need for termite treatment.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are different types of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they will going to apply one of two general termite protection systems. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Termite treatment in Kearns homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys can bring some definate benefits that can not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after contact with them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated locations, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is lower.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from houses by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house makes it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
