Protection & Extermination Against Termites

White ant or termite infestations are quite common around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Gledswood Hills each year. That’s why termite protection and extermination is so important.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments alter with regards to their goals and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the structure being protected. Give us a call today for additional information on the cost of termite protections.

Generally, in Gledswood Hills, termite specialists make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has distinct advantages and should also be considered.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites because they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a break in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify the gaps and gain entry.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual life of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can transfer the chemical on to fellow members of the colony, thus causing a flow on result.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much less likely.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to erradicate termites in your structure, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when worker termites return to the colony, they feed the bait to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be exterminated, even though you don’t 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 usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the structure may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

• Not affected by weather conditions
• No danger for the kids & pets
