Treatment & Extermination Against Termites

across the country it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and properties in Vineyard each year, making termite treatment so crucial.

Termite Control & Protection

Termite treatments change in terms of their goals and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are 2 main termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments that try to create a barrier between the termites and the structure to be protected. Phone us today for additional info on the price of termite treatments.

In Vineyard, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to eradicate white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that should not be dismissed.

It’s wise to first have a professional termite exterminator visit the property to fully look at the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites easily identify and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later or areas cannot be treated due to access problems, the termites will detect the gaps and gain ingress through them.

Bifenthrin is the commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and thus the termites do not stay away from contact with the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and can also pass the chemical on to other colony members, therefore resulting in a flow on effect.

Because the termites do not detect these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are less likely to gain ingress via breaks.

The most frequently used non repellent is Fipronil with a residual life span of as much as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a building, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the white ants feed on the bait matrix instead of the structures that they were infesting until recently. As well as killing the white ants that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in positions where there is termite activity.

In Ground Systems can 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 stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Very flexible protection systems
• Not influenced by weather
• Safe for kids and pets
• Environmentally sound
