Termite Extermination & Prevention

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Killara annually, making termite extermination so important.

Termite Removal/Management Processes

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically utilised for termite management in Killara; either the production of a white ant barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a compounding result.

Because termites do not identify non repellents, they won’t recognise treated and untreated locations, and therefore access through possible gaps is limited.

The often common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the pests to consume a poison bait rather than the timber. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a compounding result.

In this manner, the nest may be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Impervious to weather conditions

How Much Damage Can A Colony Of Termites Really Do?
