Termite Removal

You can find various types of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are going to apply one of two general termite management strategies. 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 termite colony with baiting techniques.

Termite prevention in Heathcote residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some definate advantages that should not be ignored.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor areas can’t be treated due to access problems, the termites will detect the gaps and gain access via them.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of as many as five years and is a commonly used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they do not avoid the chemical. As a result of this, white ants go through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical to other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.

Because termites can’t detect non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is considerably reduced.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other members of the nest which creates a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

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

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather
• No danger to kids or pets
• Environmentally smart

How You Can Determine If Your Home Is Infested With Termites

A number of signs that you could have a termite infestation include:

• Timber in the structure has small holes
• Wood which is damaged and crumbling
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Colonys or mounds in tree areas
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

If left untreated, even a single colony of white ants is capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The building may even become unsafe because of the severity of the issue, and in extreme cases, can be unrepairable.
