Termite Protection Seaforth

In Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a massive level of property damage each year. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Seaforth are encouraged to find reliable termite protection services.

Managing & Removing Termites

Termite treatments change in terms of their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to produce a barrier in between the termites and the building to be protected. Call us today for additional information on the price of termite protections.

In Seaforth, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be dismissed.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain access.

The often commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants may often pass these chemicals on to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites do not identify non repellents, they won’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Used to eliminate termites within a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be erradicated, even though you don’t 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 utilised in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a swelling makes it challenging to create adequate perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

• Unaffected by weather
