Prevention & Pest Control Against Termites

In Australia it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Denistone West each year, making termite prevention so important.

Termite Removal

There are various potential treatments for termites, so let’s have alook at them briefly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and the other is with chemical treatment to create a barrier between the residence and the termites. Contact us today for additional information on the costs associated with various treatment options.

White ant prevention in Denistone West homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys may have some distinct advantages that can not be ignored.

To make sure the job is carried out right, it is crucial to get a specialist pest exterminator in to assess the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, so they provide excellent protection for treated locations. However, if not all locations can be treated, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and get access through them once again.

The regularly widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because termites cannot tell apart treated locations to non-treated locations, the potential of termite ingress via untreated gaps is considerably reduced.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the house by placing bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this manner, the whole colony can be eliminated even when the position of the nest is unknown. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved.

An In-Ground System is employed in a similar fashion, however they’re usually placed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
