Termite Removal

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let’s look at them quickly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony through baiting, and the other is using chemical treatment to produce a barrier between the home and the white ants. Call us today for more information about the costs involved with the various treatment options.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily sensed by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection on treated places. However, in the event the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, then white ants can detect these gaps and again access the house.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals aren’t identifiable by termites. Since they do not avoid the treated areas, they will 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 cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated areas, the potential for termite ingress via untreated gaps is much lower.

The most commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years after treatment.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites within a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed on the bait matrix and not the structures they were eating previously. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to other colony members.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be erradicated, even if you do not know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar fashion, they are more commonly situated around the property to provide an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the structure design is such that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
