Extermination & Treatment Against Termites

In Australia, termites are often called ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a massive level of property damage each year. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Rydalmere North West are advised to seek quality termite extermination services.

Termite Removal/Management Systems

You can find several kinds of termite situations so the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite removal strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Rydalmere, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that should not be ignored.

It’s wise to first get a specialist white ant exterminator visit the property to evaluate the situation.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain entry.

The frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. Additionally, individual white ants can also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites don’t detect these non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are less likely to gain ingress through breaks.

The often applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they have been eating. This soon kills those termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even when you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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 are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the design of a home can make it tricky to create effective perimeter barriers, since it is then possible to forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.

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 structure. If the infestation becomes severe enough, the structure could potentially become unusable.
