Extermination & Protection Against Termites

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and homes in Ermington every year, making termite extermination so vital.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically used for termite management in Ermington; either the creation of a white ant barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection on treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can sense these gaps and again access the home.

The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on result.

Since the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between untreated and treated areas, and thus access via possible gaps is restricted.

The most widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on result.

In this fashion, the entire colony can be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate place.

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 house design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for the kids and pets
• Environmentally Friendly
