Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termites, also known as white ants, are a regular sight in Australia. When they infest a house, termites can rapidly cause a lot of damage, making it important to call your reliable Blakehurst termite control provider.

Termite Removal

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are generally used for termite management in Blakehurst; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the building and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Contact us today for more information on the price for termite treatment and management.

In Blakehurst, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ advantages that should not be ignored.

It is wise to first have a professional white ant exterminator come out to the home to fully look at the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and may pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Since the termites can’t detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the structure by positioning bait stations directly on termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they are eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. 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 Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe to use around children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
