Termite Inspection Tempe

White ant or termite infestations are rather common around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many homes in Tempe each year. That is why termite inspection and extermination is so important.

Removing & Managing Termites

There are a number of treatments possible and each one has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are generally used for termite management in Tempe; either the production of a white ant barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for more info on the cost for termite treatment and management.

Typically, in Tempe, termite experts make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred form removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony eradication through baiting also has specific advantages and should also be considered.

It is important to engage the expertise of a professional white ant exterminator to look at your structures so that the damage can be fully looked at.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a regularly used chemical repellent, with a residual life expectancy of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are not identifiable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the treated areas, they will pass through the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They will also transfer the chemical to other colony members they come into contact with, thus generating a compounding result.

Since termites can not identify non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so entrance via possible gaps is much reduced.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the wood. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the nest which creates a flow on result.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be exterminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the colony. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

While In-Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, they are more commonly situated around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the structure design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to create.

Benefits Of A Termite Baiting System

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Not affected by weather
• No danger to children or pets
• An environmentally smart solution

The Telltale Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you could have a termite problem include:

• Small holes in the drywall and/or wood
• Wood is decaying or damaged
• The presence of "mud tubes" on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the home
• Nests or mounds in trees
• Swarms of winged termites flying from the colony

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

For such tiny individuals, a nest of white ants can do a lot of damage to a home. If the problem becomes serious enough, the property may become unusable. Contact Tempe Termite Pest Control today and organise a thorough examination with one of our Tempe termite inspection specialists.
