Termite or white ant infestations are quite frequent within Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Petersham annually. That’s why termite inspection and pest control is very important.

Termite Removal/Prevention Processes

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let us look at them briefly. There are two main management strategies conducted for termite pest control: first is the complete eradication of the colony with baiting, and next is using chemical treatment to make a barrier between the home and the colony. Call us today for more information on the costs involved with various treatment options.

In Petersham, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that shouldn’t be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good defense against termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, when there’s a gap in the chemical, either from a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may recognise the gaps and gain ingress.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Given they do not avoid the treated areas, they will go through the chemical and die as a result of coming into contact with it. They may also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding result.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they find no difference between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A widely used non repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

An Above Ground System is regularly used to get rid of termites from the house, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the pests to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they unknowingly feed the bait to other colony members, thus creating a flow on effect.

In this fashion, the nest may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Baiting Systems are usually installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially invaluable when the design of the home may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• Ecologically sound
