Termite Extermination & Treatment

In Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a massive amount of property damage each year. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of North Shore are encouraged to seek reliable termite extermination services.

Termite Removal & Management

You will find different kinds of termite infestations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they will going to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In North Shore, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be ignored.

It is necessary to have the termite situation checked out by a professional pest controller to evaluate the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a good deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated locations. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, termites may recognise the gaps and can potentially get in.

The frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they move over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They may also transfer the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding effect.

Given termites can’t tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated places, the chance for termite access through non-treated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from the residence by positioning bait stations directly on white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the timber they were eating. This soon kills those termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

The entire colony can be eradicated in this way, regardless of if the position of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

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

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System
