Termite Protection & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are quite frequent within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many structures in Willoughby East each year. That’s why termite protection and inspection is very important.

Termite Removal/Management Processes

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them quickly. There are two main management strategies carried out for termite pest control: one is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and the other is with chemical treatments to create a barrier between the building and the white ants. Call us today for more information on the costs associated with the various treatment options.

As a general rule, chemical methods are the most commonly used management strategy for white ant treatment in Willoughby East. However, there are several advantages to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

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

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great defense against termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and thus the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and will pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Since the termites do not detect non-repellents, they will not recognise the difference between treated and untreated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The common used non-repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a residence by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix instead of the timber they are eating. This kills the termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

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

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 particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Not influenced by weather
• No danger to kids & pets
