Two main strategies are typically utilised for termite management in North Sydney; either the creation of a termite barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Call us today for additional information on the cost for termite treatment and management.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated locations. However, if the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can detect these gaps and once again access the building.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites can transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated places, the chance of termite access through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home can make it difficult to have effective perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to forestall white ants before they breach the perimeter.
