Termite Protection & Treatment

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create untold quantities of damage to houses throughout Caringbah each year, creating a large need for termite prevention.

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

You will find various kinds of termite situations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the professionals, they are likely to apply one of two general termite protection processes. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical remedies are a more standard treatment to kill termites in Caringbah homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that should not be forgotten.

It is vital to get in an experienced termite exterminator to visit your home and evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain entry.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may often pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t detect non repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The common used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are commonly used to get rid of termites in the home, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the structure. Also, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, therefore creating a flow on effect.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be eliminated, even if 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.

In-Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger for children & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
