Termite Pest Control & Inspection

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight around Australia. When they infest a residence, termites can rapidly create a great deal of damage, making it vital to call your trusted Oakhurst termite pest control provider.

Termite Removal & Prevention

The two main strategies employed are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and getting rid of the termite colony entirely by baiting.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most widely utilised repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will go through the residue and die. In addition, individual termites may also pass these chemicals to other members in the colony, resulting in a compounding and efficient effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non repellents, they find no difference between areas which are treated and the ones that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most widely used non repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from the dwelling by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to consume a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites will then feed the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be erradicated, even if you don’t 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.

In-Ground Systems can 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for children and pets
• Environmentally Friendly

• Damaged or disintegrating wood
• Evidence of mud tubes on the brickwork, timber, ceiling or subfloor
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees near the structure
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming to and from the colony

Can Termites Badly Damage My Building?
