Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Kogarah annually, making termite inspection so vital.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

There are various types of termite situations and so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they are going to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

As a general rule, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Kogarah. However, there are several advantages to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is necessary to have your termite situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly identified by termites and avoided, they provide good protection in treated areas. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become compromised, white ants can identify the gaps and get access via them once again.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites don’t stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the possibility for termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

The common used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite colony can be erradicated, even when you do not 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.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful when the dwelling design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against white ants
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for all your family & pets
• An environmentally smart solution
