Removing & Managing Termites
Termite treatments change regarding their aims and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to make a barrier between the termites and the building to be protected. Contact us today for additional information on the cost of termite preventions.
White ant prevention in Monterey residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys can bring some definate benefits that can not be ignored.

Repelling Chemicals
These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, then termites can identify the gaps and access the building.
The often widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.
Non-Repellent Chemicals
Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and they will not steer clear of the chemical. Because of this, termites will pass over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a compounding result.
Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.
The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of as much as 8 years.
By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from your house by positioning bait stations at the site of termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating. This kills the termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed that bait to fellow nest members.
The entire colony may be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed 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 white ants. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a building will make it tricky to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
