Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge quantities of damage to homes in Oatlands annually, creating a large requirement for termite treatment.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

Each situation is different, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies used are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatments cost, give us a call today.

For the most part, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Oatlands. However, there are several benefits to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is vital to bring in an expert termite exterminator to check out your premises and assess the damage.

Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can sense the breaks and again access the property.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after contact with them. Additionally, individual termites will pass these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Since the termites don’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

The most commonly used non-repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of up to eight years after application.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is often used to eliminate termites in the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait instead of the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a compounding result.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this fashion, the entire nest can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Environmentally friendly

The Telltale Warning Signs Of Termite Infestation

A number of signs that you could have a termite problem include:

• Tiny holes found in drywall and/or wood
• Wood is crumbling or damaged
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on wood, floorboards, ceilings, brickwork and in subfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming around the nest

What Damage Can Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites are capable of doing quite a lot of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes severe enough, your dwelling could become unsafe.
