Termite Control & Inspection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight around Australia. Once they infest a property, termites can rapidly create a considerable amount of damage, making it vital to call your reliable Balgowlah Heights termite control provider.

Termite Removal

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them quickly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite control: one is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the building and the white ants. Call us today to find out more on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Chemical treatments are a more standard treatment to eliminate termites in Balgowlah Heights homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

It’s important to first have a professional termite exterminator visit the home to fully look at the situation.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

The often widely applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may transfer the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Because the termites can not identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a building, 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 timber that they were infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to further colony members.

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

In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, however they are usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a potential termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the property can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to children or pets
• An environmentally smart solution

The Telltale Indications Of Termite Infestation

These are the signs you have termites:

• Small holes found in drywall and/or timber
• Wood which is damaged and disintegrating
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, timber, ceiling and subfloor
• Trees show signs of nests & mounds
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying from the colony

Can Termites Badly Damage My Dwelling?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of white ants are capable of doing quite a lot of damage to a dwelling. If the infestation becomes bad enough, the home may potentially become unsafe.
