Remedy For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge amounts of damage to buildings across Sutherland every year, creating a large need for termite control.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

There are 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 removal systems. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Typically, in Sutherland, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred kind control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

It’s important to first get a specialist white ant exterminator visit the home to evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and an excellent deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may recognise these gaps and could potentially get in.

The often commonly applied chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

Because the termites don’t detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access through breaks.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix and not the structures that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar way, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the home design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
