Extermination & Pest Control Against Termites

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 homes in Greendale each year, making termite extermination so crucial.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

There are different kinds of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they are going to apply one of two general termite removal processes. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you hope to protect. Or perhaps, the eradication of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

White ant extermination in Greendale homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for killing the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may bring some definate advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is important to engage the services of a professional termite exterminator to check out your structures so the damage can be fully looked at.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can sense these gaps and access the home.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

Since the termites don’t identify non-repellents, they don’t recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and thus access through possible gaps is much less likely.

The most common non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the pests to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which produces a compounding effect.

The entire nest can be destroyed in this manner, regardless of if the position of the nest 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 observed white ant activity.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often placed throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early discivery of termites. These systems are especially helpful when the design of a building will make it difficult to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to intercept termites before they breach the perimeter.
