Termite Removal & Protection

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold quantities of damage to buildings in Loftus on a yearly basis, creating a large need for termite removal.

Termite Removal

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them quickly. There are two main strategies carried out for termite control: first is the complete eradication of the colony through baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to make a barrier between the home and the termites. Call us today to learn more on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Termite removal in Loftus homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys can have some distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is highly recommended to engage the services of a specialist termite exterminator to check out your house so that the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or some locations cannot be treated because of access issues, then termites may detect the gaps and attain access via them.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

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

A commonly used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to get rid of termites in your structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the nest is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so that they are 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 useful when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Eco-friendly

The Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Here are the signs you have termites:

• Little holes found in drywall and/or timber
• Damaged or collapsing timber
• The presence of "mud tubes" on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the building
• Trees show signs of colonys & mounds
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying around the colony

What Destruction Can Termites Cause?

It surprises many homeowners to discover that termites can cause a great deal of harm to buildings. In fact, just one colony of termites can render a house unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
