Termite Protection & Prevention

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge amounts of damage to buildings in Grose Vale each year, creating a strong need for termite protection.

Termite Removal

You will find several types of termite situations therefore the best treatments also vary. When you bring in the specialists, they will likely to apply one of two general termite management strategies. This can include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you intend to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

In Grose Vale, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

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

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that has a residual life of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites do not stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, therefore resulting in a compounding result.

As termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, 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.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar fashion, they are typically installed around the property to provide an early detection and interception system. Systems such as these are especially useful when the house design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems
