Treatment & Control Against Termites

In Australia, termites are frequently called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can wreak a significant amount of property damage annually. Due to their great capacity for destruction, residents of St George are encouraged to seek quality termite treatment services.

Termite Removal & Management

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them briefly. There are two main management strategies performed for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and the other is with chemical treatment to create a barrier between the residence and the white ants. Call us today for more information on the costs associated with various treatment options.

Generally, in St George, termite experts use a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has distinct advantages and should also be considered.

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

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or some locations can’t be treated because of access problems, the termites can detect the breaks and attain ingress through those areas.

The widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat has a residual life of up to 5 years following application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after contact with them. In addition, individual termites can transfer these chemicals on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Because the termites can not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life expectancy of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the wood they have been eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants 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 may be eliminated in this way, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

While In Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are typically installed throughout the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the dwelling design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
