Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold levels of damage to buildings across Minto every year, creating a large need for termite treatment.

Termite Removal/Protection Systems

There are several treatments possible and each has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Minto; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Contact us today for additional information on the price for termite management and treatment.

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

It is important to first get a professional termite exterminator visit the property to fully evaluate the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants can identify these gaps and could potentially get in.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual lifetime of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the potential of termite access through untreated gaps is lower.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which produces a compounding result.

In this way, the entire termite colony will be exterminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the colony. 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.

An In Ground System is used in a similar way, but they’re usually placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they can breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for all your family & pets
• Environmentally friendly

Can Termites Badly Damage My Dwelling?
