Remedy For Termite Infestation

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. Once they infest a house, termites can rapidly create a considerable amount of damage, making it essential to call your dependable Gordon termite extermination provider.

Termite Control/Prevention Processes

You can find different kinds of termite situations and so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they are going to apply one of two general termite protection systems. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Gordon, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that shouldn’t be dismissed.

It is of great importance to engage the services of a professional white ant exterminator to look at your house so the damage can be fully looked at.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting places because termites quickly detect and choose to avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later or some areas cannot be treated because of access problems, the white ants can detect those gaps and gain ingress via those areas.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t detectable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the chemical, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also pass the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they won’t recognise untreated and treated places, and thus access through possible gaps is restricted.

The most common used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from a house by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been attacking. This kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this manner, the nest may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are typically situated throughout the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful where the home design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not impacted by weather conditions
• No danger to kids or pets
• An environmentally smart solution

Common Signs That You Have Termites

A number of signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Tiny holes found in drywall and/or wood
• Timber is crumbling or damaged
• ‘Mud Tubes’ on the timber, floor boards, ceilings, brick work and in underfloor areas
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying around the nest

What Damage Can Termites Cause?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of termites (white ants) are capable of doing a lot of damage to a house. If the problem becomes bad enough, your property may become unusable.
