Termite Prevention & Removal

Around Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can wreak a massive amount of property damage annually. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Yarramundi are encouraged to seek quality termite prevention services.

Termite Removal/Management Processes

Each situation is different, and so there are different treatment options for specific situations. The two main strategies used are creating a termite barrier using specialised chemical treatments, and extermination the termite colony entirely by baiting. For more information on what these treatments cost, give us a call today.

Generally, in Yarramundi, termite experts make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some distinct advantages and should also be considered.

It is vital to have the white ant situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to look at the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there is a gap in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain entry.

The most frequently applied repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants may often transfer these chemicals on to other members of the colony, creating a compounding and efficient result.

Since the termites don’t identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated places, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from houses by positioning 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 return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the whole termite nest will be erradicated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. 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 installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a structure makes it challenging to install effective perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not affected by weather
• Safe for all your family including pets
• Environmentally smart

Common Signs That You May Have Termites

Several signs that you could have a termite problem include:

• Tiny holes found in drywall or timber
• Timber is disintegrating or damaged
• Evidence of ‘mud tubes’ on the brickwork, timber, ceiling or subfloor
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen swarming from the nest

How Destructive Are Termites?

It surprises many homeowners to discover that white ants can do a lot of damage to buildings. In fact, even a single colony of termites can render a structure unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
