Removal & Prevention Against Termites

White ant or termite infestations are quite common within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Peakhurst each year. That’s why termite removal and prevention is very important.

Termite Removal

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at them briefly. There are two main strategies performed for termite pest control: first is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is using chemical treatment to make a barrier between the home and the colony. Call us today for additional information on the costs associated with various treatment options.

In Peakhurst, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be dismissed.

It is highly recommended to engage the expertise of a professional white ant exterminator to look at your residence in order that the damage can be thoroughly reviewed.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain ingress.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a lasting effect of up to five years after application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result die after contact with them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Since the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain ingress via possible gaps.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is commonly used to erradicate termites from the structure, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the wood. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even if you don’t 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.

In-Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Flexible protection system
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• Safe for all the family & pets
• Ecologically smart

The Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Miniscule holes in drywall and timber
• Damaged or collapsing wood
• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the structure
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees near the home
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying around the colony

How Destructive Are Termites?

If left untreated, even a single nest of termites are capable of doing a surprising amount of damage. The structure may even become unlivable because of the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, may even be irreparable.
