In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Mount Colah North West each year, making termite prevention so essential.
Termite Removal/Management Processes
Termite treatments vary regarding their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to make a barrier between the termites and the structure being protected. Phone us today to learn more about the cost of termite preventions.
Chemical treatments are a more traditional treatment to eliminate termites in Mount Colah homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has some distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.
It is vital to call in a professional termite exterminator to check out your home and evaluate the damage.

Repelling Chemicals
Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain ingress.
The most widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as 5 years.
Non-Repellent Chemicals
These chemicals are not detectable by termites. Given they don’t avoid the chemical, they will move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.
Since termites do not detect non-repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is restricted.
Fipronil is a widely used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of up to 8 years.
By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they are attacking. This soon kills the 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.
Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be elimited even if its location is unknown.
In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the layout of a structure will make it hard to have adequate perimeter barriers, as it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
