Cure For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold amounts of damage to buildings across Inner West annually, creating a strong requirement for termite inspection.

Termite Removal/Management Processes

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are generally used for termite management in Inner West; either the creation of a termite barrier between the home and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting.

In Inner West, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to eradicate termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ own advantages that shouldn’t be dismissed.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised at a later stage, or if access is an issue and not all areas are treated, white ants will identify the gaps and could potentially get in.

The commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus die after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Since termites cannot identify non repellents, they are unable to know the difference between untreated and treated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is considerably less likely.

The commonly used non repellent treatment is Fipronil, which features a residual life of as many as eight years after application.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can 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 as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the location of the colony is not known. It is important to monitor and assess these stations frequently so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they are in locations 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 essential when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they intercept the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for children and pets
• Eco-friendly
