Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight around Australia. Once they infest a home, termites can rapidly cause a lot of damage, making it essential to call your trusted Prospect termite treatment provider.

Termite Removal & Management

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each briefly. There are two main management strategies performed for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to create a barrier between the building and the white ants. Contact us today to learn more on the costs associated with the various treatment options.

In Prospect, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be ignored.

To ensure the job is carried out correctly, it’s advised to have a reliable white ant exterminator in to review the situation.

If you believe that your home or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Phone us and receive the help of the best termite treatment team covering the Prospect area. We can help you to make an informed decision on this crucial service, and offer you a competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection in treated locations. However, if not all locations can be treated, or the treated areas become compromised, white ants can recognise the gaps and get access through them once again.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated places, and as a result are killed after contact with them. In addition, termites will pass these chemicals to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they don’t recognise treated and untreated areas, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

An entire nest may be eliminated in this fashion, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

• Not affected by weather conditions

The Signs Of A Termite Infestation

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

• Miniscule holes in drywall or timber
• Wood is damaged or decaying
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Mounds or nests can be seen in nearby trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying to and from the nest

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

It surprises many people to discover that white ants could cause a lot of harm to structures. In fact, just one colony of termites can render a home unlivable if the problem is severe enough.
