Removal & Prevention Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create untold quantities of damage to buildings in Prospect every year, creating a strong need for termite removal.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

Termite treatments vary in terms of their goals and application, each with their own differences, benefits and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which try to produce a barrier between the termites and the structure being protected. Call us today to learn more about the cost of termite removals.

Chemical remedies are the more traditional treatment to kill white ants in Prospect homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct benefits which should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated areas. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they are later compromised, then white ants can sense these breaks and once again access the home.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to 5 years and is a commonly used chemical repellent available today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and can pass the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus causing a flow on result.

Since termites cannot identify non-repellents, they are unable to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access through possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The often used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

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

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even when 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 used in a similar manner, however they are often placed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to assist in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly helpful when the design of a house makes it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and forestall termites before they breach the perimeter.
