Treatment & Inspection Against Termites

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. Once they infest a structure, termites can rapidly create a lot of damage, making it crucial to call your reliable Mount Vernon termite treatment provider.

Termite Control/Protection Systems

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at them briefly. There’s two main strategies conducted for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and the other is with chemical treatment to create a barrier between the house and the termites. Contact us today to learn more on the costs associated with various treatment options.

Typically, in Mount Vernon, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred type management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should be considered.

It is important to engage the services of a professional white ant exterminator to check out your property so that the damage can be fully assessed.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can sense the gaps and again access the house.

The often frequently utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and so they will not avoid the chemical. Because of this, termites go over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a structure by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be erradicated, even when you do not 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 employed in a similar fashion, but they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the design of the home can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they can breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for all your family including pets
• An environmentally smart solution

How To Tell If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

Typical signs that your property has a termite infestation:

• Wood in the dwelling has holes
• Timber is decaying or damaged
• "Mud tubes" appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Winged termites (or alates) may be noticed leaving the nest

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

If left untreated, even just one colony of termites can do a surprising amount of destruction. The house may even become unlivable as a result of the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, may even be unrepairable.
