Solution For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create untold levels of damage to homes in Croydon annually, creating a strong need for termite pest control.

Termite Removal/Management Systems

There are several potential treatments for termites, so let us have alook at each quickly. There’s two main management strategies carried out for termite pest control: first is the complete eradication of the colony via baiting, and second is with chemical treatments to make a barrier between the house and the white ants. Call us today for more information about the costs associated with the various treatment options.

In Croydon, chemical treatments are the more traditionally applied management strategy to kill white ants. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ own benefits that should not be dismissed.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when 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, termites can discover these gaps and gain entry.

The most widely used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a residual effectiveness of up to 5 years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and so they don’t avoid the treated areas. As a result of this, white ants move through the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual termites transfer the chemical onto fellow colony members, causing a compounding effect.

Since termites can not identify non repellents, they are unable to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is much less likely.

The often used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

An Above Ground System is regularly used to eliminate termites from your house, by placing bait stations directly on termite paths to encourage the termites to feed on the bait rather than the timber. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they unknowingly transfer the bait to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this way, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location is not known.

While In-Ground Systems can be used in a similar way, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful when the home design means that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.
