Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at them briefly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is with chemical treatments to create a barrier between the home and the white ants.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify the gaps and can potentially get in.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and can also transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and others that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a lasting effect of as many as eight years after application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to get rid of termites from your home, by locating bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on effect.

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

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 especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically sound

How You Can Determine If Your House Is Infested With Termites

General signs that your residence is infested with termites:

• Miniscule holes in drywall or timber
• Wood that is damaged and collapsing
• Evidence of mud tubes on the brickwork, wood, ceiling and/or sub floor
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Winged termites (or alates) may be seen leaving the colony

How Problematic Are Termites?

When left untreated, even just one nest of termites is capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The home may even become unlivable because of the significance of the infestation, and in extreme cases, can be unrepairable.
