White ant or termite infestations are rather common in Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Loftus Sutherland each year. That’s why termite prevention and inspection is so important.
Removing & Managing Termites
There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are generally employed for termite management in Loftus; either the production of a white ant barrier between the residence and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Call us today for more information on the cost for termite treatment and management.
White ant prevention in Loftus residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys may bring some definate advantages that cannot be ignored.
It’s vital to get in an experienced termite exterminator to visit your home and evaluate the damage.

Repellent Chemicals
Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some locations cannot be treated due to access problems, then white ants will identify those gaps and gain access via those areas.
The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of as many as 5 years following application.
Non-Repellent Chemicals
Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and so they won’t avoid the treated areas. Because of this, white ants will go through the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding effect.
Because termites can’t identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is a lot less likely.
Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.
Used to erradicate termites in a structure, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix and not the timber that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.
An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.
In-Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
