Termite or white ant infestations are rather common around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Thornleigh each year. That is why termite control and pest control is essential.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are different kinds of termite infestations and so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention processes. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Thornleigh, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites easily detect and choose to avoid them. However, if treated locations are compromised later or locations cannot be treated because of access difficulties, then termites will identify those breaks and gain ingress via those areas.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is a lot reduced.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from your home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then feed the bait to other members of the nest which results in a compounding result.

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

In Ground Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the house may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
