Termite Prevention
Clareville Northern Beaches

Solution For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold amounts of damage to properties throughout Clareville Northern Beaches every year, creating a large need for termite prevention.

Termite Control/Prevention Strategies

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at them briefly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony with baiting, and the other is using chemical treatment to make a barrier between the house and the white ants. Call us today for more information about the costs involved with the various treatment options.

White ant prevention in Clareville homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys may bring some distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

To make sure the job is carried out correctly, it’s advised to get a trusted pest exterminator in to look at the damage.

If you feel that your residence or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Give us a call and get the help of the best termite prevention team covering the Clareville area. We will assist you to make an educated decision about this vital service, and offer you a competitive price for treatment.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can recognise these gaps and could potentially gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will often pass these chemicals on to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient result.

Because the termites don’t detect non repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest can be eliminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 Systems are generally installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
