Termite Treatment & Protection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight around Australia. When they infest a structure, termites can rapidly create a large amount of damage, making it essential to call your trusted Dee Why termite extermination provider.

Termite Removal & Prevention

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

Chemical treatments are the more standard treatment to eliminate white ants in Dee Why homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is vital to have your white ant situation examined by a professional bug exterminator to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they do not steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, white ants pass through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Individual termites transfer the chemical to fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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 particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting
