Termite Removal & Extermination

Termite or white ant infestations are quite common in Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in St George annually. That’s why termite removal and extermination is very important.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let us take a look at them briefly. There’s two main strategies conducted for termite pest control: one is the complete eradication of the colony through baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the house and the termites. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Termite removal in St George residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, interception and baiting to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

It’s important to first have a professional termite exterminator come out to the house to fully look at the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can discover these gaps and gain entry.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Because termites can’t identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus encouraging the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the structure. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which creates a compounding result.

An entire colony may be exterminated 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 white ant activity.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early detection and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
