Treatment & Prevention Against Termites

Termite or white ant infestations are quite frequent within Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Brookvale Northern Beaches each year. That’s why termite treatment and inspection is essential.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

There are various kinds of termite situations and so the best treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will likely to apply one of two general termite management processes. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

White ant treatment in Brookvale homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys can have some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

It is wise to first have a specialist termite exterminator come out to the house to fully look at the damage.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later onor some locations cannot be treated due to access issues, the white ants can identify those breaks and attain ingress via them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is a widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they move through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites will often pass these chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Given termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential of termite ingress through non-treated gaps is considerably reduced.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to eliminate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they have been infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the colony may be eliminated even though the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate area.

While In-Ground Systems are utilised in a similar way, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is hard to install.
