Around Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a significant amount of property damage annually. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of Oxford Falls Northern Beaches are advised to seek quality termite protection services.
Termite Removal/Protection Systems
There are various kinds of termite infestations so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the pros, they will going to apply one of two general termite prevention strategies. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.
Chemical treatments are the more traditional treatment to eliminate termites in Oxford Falls homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct advantages which cannot be ignored.
It is important to first have a specialist termite exterminator visit the property to evaluate the damage.
If you believe that your residence or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Call us and get the assistance of the most experienced termite protection team covering the Oxford Falls area. We can assist you to make a well informed decision about this important service, and offer you a very competitive price for treatment.

Repelling Chemicals
Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify these gaps and gain access.
The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual life of as much as five years.
Non Repelling Chemicals
Termites don’t identify these repellents. Because of this, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer these chemicals to other colony members, causing a flow on effect.
Since termites don’t identify non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.
A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life of up to 8 years.
Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.
Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is not known.
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 intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.
