Termite Control/Prevention Systems

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at each quickly. There are two main management strategies performed for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is with chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the building and the white ants. Call us today to learn more on the costs associated with the various treatment options.

Generally, in Bilgola Plateau, termite experts make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred kind removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific advantages and should also be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations are not fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can sense these gaps and again access the building.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites don’t identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can pass these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non repellents, they will not recognise treated and untreated places, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to 8 years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the structures they were eating previously. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this manner, regardless of if the location of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the 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 especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
