Termite Inspection & Treatment

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight in Australia. Once they infest a home, termites can rapidly cause a large amount of damage, making it important to call your trusted Sutherland Jannali termite inspection provider.

Managing & Removing Termites

Termite treatments alter in terms of their aims and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. The two major termite management strategies; attempting to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Give us a call today for more information on the cost of termite inspections.

Termite inspection in Jannali residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may have some distinct benefits that should not be ignored.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor places cannot be treated because of access difficulties, the termites may identify the breaks and attain ingress via them.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of as many as 5 years and is the most commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Because termites do not identify non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has 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 termites then 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 manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the residence design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to create.

What Damage Can Termites Do?

If left untreated, even a single nest of termites can do a surprising amount of damage. The structure may even become unusable because of the severity of the infestation, and in extreme cases, can be unrepairable.
