Termite Protection & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are rather frequent in Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many structures in Collaroy Plateau each year. That’s why termite prevention and inspection is so important.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at each briefly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is with chemical treatments to make a barrier between the house and the termites. Contact us today for more information about the costs associated with various treatment options.

In Collaroy Plateau, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ advantages that should not be ignored.

To ensure the job is carried out correctly, it’s crucial to have a specialist termite exterminator in to assess the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise these gaps and could potentially get in.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to five years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because the termites can’t detect non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

Fipronil is the most widely used non repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites within a house, 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 timber that they have been eating until now. 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 other colony members.

The entire nest may be destroyed in this manner, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of a structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not afflicted with weather
• Safe for the kids and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
