Termite Protection & Prevention

In Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a significant level of property damage each year. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Bilgola Plateau are advised to find quality termite protection services.

Removing & Managing Termites

You will find different kinds of termite infestations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the specialists, they are going to apply one of two general termite prevention systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical remedies are a more traditional treatment to eliminate white ants in Bilgola Plateau homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites can recognise the gaps and can sometimes get in.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Given termites cannot tell apart treated areas to non-treated locations, the possibility of termite access through untreated gaps is far lower.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the termites to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. These termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which results in a flow on effect.

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

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home makes it tricky to install adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for children and pets
• Ecologically sound
