Termite Removal/Protection Processes

You can find several kinds of termite infestations so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the professionals, they are likely to apply one of two general termite management strategies. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Typically, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Engadine. However, there are distinct benefits to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. However, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify the gaps and can sometimes get in.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and they won’t steer clear of the treated areas. Because of this, termites will go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

Since the termites can’t identify these non-repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain access via gaps.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of as much as eight years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which creates a compounding effect.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems can 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for all the family including pets

• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the structure
• Obvious termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the dwelling
• Swarms of winged termites (alates) flying to the colony

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?
