Treatment For Termite Infestation

In Australia, termites are often called ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a significant level of property damage each year. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Woolwich are advised to find reliable termite prevention services.

Managing & Removing Termites

Termite treatments vary regarding their aims and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are 2 main termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to make a barrier between the termites and the structure to be protected. Call us today for more information on the price of termite preventions.

White ant prevention in Woolwich residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can have some distinct benefits that cannot be ignored.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find chemicals straighforward to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants may recognise the gaps and could sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, with a residual lifespan of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they do not stay away from the treated areas. Because of this, white ants will move over the chemical and die because of exposure to it. Also, individual termites pass the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a compounding result.

As termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the building by positioning bait stations directly on termite evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the wood they are eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this way, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they continue to be in places where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Unimpacted by weather
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Environmentally Friendly
