Termite Protection & Treatment

Around Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a significant level of property damage every year. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of Blakehurst are encouraged to seek reliable termite inspection services.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Blakehurst; either the creation of a termite barrier between the structure and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for more details on the cost for termite management and treatment.

In Blakehurst, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be ignored.

It is advantageous to engage the services of a professional termite exterminator to look at your house so the damage can be fully reviewed.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find these chemicals straighforward to identify and a strong deterrent, making them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants may identify the gaps and can potentially get in.

The regularly widely utilised chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the possibility for termite access through untreated gaps is far lower.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a home will make it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for kids and pets
• Environmentally Friendly

How To Tell If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

There are many indications that your home suffers from a white ant infestation:

• Little holes found in drywall or timber
• Damaged or disintegrating timber
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on wood, floor boards, ceilings, brickwork or in underfloor areas
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees near the structure
• Winged termites (or alates) can be seen leaving the nest

Can Termites Really Damage My House?

It surprises many homeowners to learn that white ants may do a lot of harm to structures. In fact, just one colony of termites can render a home unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
