Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Northern Beaches each year, making termite treatment so crucial.

Termite Removal

You can find various kinds of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite removal strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Termite treatment in Northern Beaches residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some definate advantages that should not be ignored.

It is important to engage the services of a professional white ant exterminator to check out your home so that the damage can be fully reviewed.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, so they provide great protection for treated areas. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become disrupted, termites can identify the gaps and gain access via them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and 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 pest activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is not known.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar manner, but they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are useful when the construction of the building can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

• Unaffected by weather conditions

• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming from the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?
