Protection & Control Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge quantities of damage to properties in Monterey each year, creating a large requirement for termite protection.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

Termite treatments alter in terms of their goals and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some places can not be treated due to access problems, the termites may identify the breaks and attain access via those areas.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they go through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants will often transfer these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Because termites don’t identify non repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

The frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the timber that they were infesting until now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

An entire nest can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed activity.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically situated around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting

Common Signs Of A Termite Infestation

• Wood that is damaged and collapsing
• Mud tubes appear on the ceiling, floors, woodwork, brick work and subfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds in trees
• Winged termites (or alates) may be seen leaving the colony
