Inspection & Extermination Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge levels of damage to houses in Engadine each year, creating a large requirement for termite inspection.

Termite Removal & Prevention

Each situation is unique, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies employed are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatments cost, give us a call now.

Typically, in Engadine, termite specialists will use a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has distinct advantages and should be considered.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants may identify these gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is a widely used repellent chemical currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding effect.

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

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the nest can be eliminated even though the location of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the layout of a structure makes it challenging to create effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Unaffected by weather conditions

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Actually Do?
