Termite Protection & Treatment

across the country it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Northern Beaches every year, making termite control so crucial.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments vary in terms of their goals and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are 2 main termite management strategies; trying to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to produce a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals straighforward to detect and an excellent deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites will identify the gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used repellent chemical currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t identified by termites, and they will not stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will pass through the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Individual insects will transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access through possible gaps is a lot reduced.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

In this way, the entire termite nest can be eliminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather
• No danger for children & pets
• Ecologically Friendly
