Termite Prevention & Inspection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight around Australia. When they infest a home, termites can rapidly cause a considerable amount of damage, making it crucial to call your trusted West Pennant Hills termite prevention provider.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments alter regarding their aims and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to produce a barrier between the termites and the structure to be protected. Call us today for additional information on the price of termite preventions.

In West Pennant Hills, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be dismissed.

It is important to first have a professional termite exterminator visit the property to fully look at the situation.

Chemical Remedy for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them very useful for protection around treated locations. However, in the event the treated locations are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can detect these breaks and again access the house.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not detected by termites, and so they do not stay away from the chemical. As a result of this, termites go over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites will pass the chemical onto other colony members, causing a flow on effect.

Since termites can not detect non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is the most widely used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood that they were infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

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

While In-Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the structure design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to create.

Baiting System Benefits

• Flexible protection against termites
• Poor weather does not impact control
• No danger for children & pets
