Removing & Managing Termites

There are various kinds of termite infestations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you bring in the professionals, they are going to apply one of two general termite management strategies. This may include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

White ant protection in Whalan homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eradicating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys can bring some distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering good protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, termites will recognise these gaps and can sometimes get in.

The often widely applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they move through the residue and die. In addition, individual white ants can often transfer these chemicals on to other members in the colony, resulting in a flow on and efficient result.

Given termites cannot tell the difference between treated areas to non-treated places, the potential of termite access through untreated gaps is much lower.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent available today, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

In this manner, the whole nest can be eliminated even when the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In-Ground Systems may 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 useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
