Termite Removal

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at each briefly. There are two main strategies conducted for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony with baiting, and next is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the home and the termites. Contact us today for additional information on the costs associated with various treatment options.

Typically, in Cheltenham, termite experts will use a chemical treatment as the preferred method removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has specific benefits and should also be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there is a break in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and will also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on effect.

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

The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites within a dwelling, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures that they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this way, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location isn’t known.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are more commonly installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the dwelling design means that a robust perimeter barrier is impossible to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
• Environmentally friendly

Common Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Here are the common signs of a termite infestation:

• Holes in the drywall and/or wood
• Wood which is damaged and breaking down
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, wood, ceiling and/or subfloor areas
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Swarms of alates flying from the termite colony

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

When left untreated, even just one colony of termites is capable of doing an unexpected amount of damage. The house can even become unlivable because of the significance of the infestation, and in the extreme, may be irreparable.
