Termite Protection & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are rather frequent around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Sans Souci each year. That’s why termite protection and treatment is so important.

Termite Control/Protection Processes

Termite treatments vary in terms of their goals and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are 2 major termite management strategies; attempting to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to produce a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Give us a call today for additional information on the price of termite protections.

Generally, in Sans Souci, termite specialists make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred type management strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some specific benefits and should be considered.

It is important to have your termite situation checked out by a professional pest controller to assess the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a flow on effect.

Because termites can’t detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance through possible gaps is a lot less likely.

The frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of up to 8 years following treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are often used to get rid of termites in the home, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait as opposed to the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other members of the colony, causing a compounding effect.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed pest activity. In this way, the entire colony can be exterminated even if its location is not known.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated throughout the property to offer an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the structure design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe for all the family & pets
• Eco-friendly

Common Signs That You Have Termites

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

• Minute holes in the drywall and/or timber
• Wood that is damaged and disintegrating
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, timber, ceiling and sub floor areas
• Mounds or colonys can be found in nearby trees
• Winged termites (or alates) may be seen swarming from the nest

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites is capable of causing quite a lot of damage to a house. If the problem becomes bad enough, the home could become unlivable.
