Control & Pest Control Against Termites

In Australia it is quite common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Strathfield South each year, making termite control so important.

Termite Control/Protection Strategies

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Strathfield South; either the production of a termite barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting. Call us today for additional information about the price for termite management and treatment.

Generally, in Strathfield South, termite specialists use a chemical treatment as the preferred form control strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has some distinct advantages and should be considered.

It’s important to first have a professional termite exterminator come out to the building to fully assess the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily identified by termites and strongy avoided, so they provide good protection for treated locations. If not all areas can be treated, or the treated locations become compromised, termites can recognise those gaps and gain access through them once again.

Bifenthrin features a residual lifetime of as many as five years and is the most widely used repellent chemical on the market today.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they will not stay away from the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants will pass over the chemical and die as a result of contact with it. Also, individual insects pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding result.

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

The most common non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a structure by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant evidence, and encouraging the pests to eat the bait matrix rather than the wood they have been eating. This soon kills the termites that consume the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the colony and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire nest may 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 require stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of the residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate white ants before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Advantages

• Flexible protection system
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution

The Signs Of Termite Infestation

Here are some telltale signs of a termite infestation:

• Wood in the home has small holes
• Damaged or crumbling timber
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the dwelling
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Alates (winged termites) flying from the nest

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of white ants can do quite a lot of damage to a building. If the infestation becomes serious enough, the home could potentially become unusable.
