Termite Pest Control Valley Heights

In Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a massive amount of property damage annually. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Valley Heights are encouraged to seek reliable termite pest control services.

Termite Removal/Prevention Systems

There are different kinds of termite situations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the experts, they will likely to apply one of two general termite prevention strategies. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Valley Heights, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be dismissed.

To make sure the job is done correctly, it is vital to get a reliable termite exterminator in to review the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there is a break in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can identify these gaps and gain entry.

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

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and as a result are killed after they have contact with them. Additionally, termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a compounding result.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated places to non-treated places, the chance for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is much lower.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the structure by placing bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been attacking. This soon kills the termites that eat the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the whole termite colony 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.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of white ants. These systems are especially useful when the layout of a structure will make it tricky to have effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
