Termite Treatment
Wollstonecraft North Shore

Solution For Termite Infestation

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These common household pests create huge levels of damage to properties in Wollstonecraft North Shore every year, creating a strong need for termite treatment.

Termite Control & Protection

There are different kinds of termite infestations and hence the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

Chemical remedies are the more traditional treatment to kill white ants in Wollstonecraft homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct advantages that cannot be forgotten.

It is vital to call in a professional termite exterminator to visit your home and evaluate the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and a good deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, white ants will identify the gaps and can sometimes gain access.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical available today.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments are not identified by termites, and they don’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, termites will move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites will pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

Because the termites don’t detect non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between treated and untreated areas, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Understanding Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from homes by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

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

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
