Cure For Termite Infestation

In Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a massive level of property damage annually. Due to the great capacity for destruction, residents of Chiswick Inner West are encouraged to seek reliable termite control services.

Termite Control/Prevention Strategies

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at them briefly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite control: one is the complete eradication of the colony with baiting, and second is with chemical treatment to make a barrier between the home and the colony. Call us today to learn more on the costs involved with various treatment options.

Termite control in Chiswick homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to eradicate the termite colonys may bring some distinct advantages that cannot be ignored.

To make sure the job is done right, it’s crucial to get a trusted pest exterminator in to review the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting places because termites easily detect and strongly avoid them. If treated locations are compromised later onor some locations can’t be treated as a result of access difficulties, then termites may identify the breaks and attain ingress via those areas.

The often frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of as much as 5 years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after contact with them. In addition, termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites can not identify non repellents, they are not able to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so access via possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of up to 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems may be used to eliminate termites from buildings 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 white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

The entire colony can be eliminated in this way, regardless of if the location of the colony is known or not. The area should be regularly monitored so if required, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the observed white ant activity.

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 especially useful when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
