Termite Pest Control & Control

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight in Australia. When they infest a structure, termites can rapidly create a considerable amount of damage, making it important to call your reliable Croydon termite pest control provider.

Termite Control/Protection Processes

There are several treatments possible and each one has its advantages and limitations. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Croydon; either the production of a termite barrier between the structure and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony via baiting.

Chemical remedies are the more typical strategy to eliminate white ants in Croydon homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct benefits that cannot be forgotten.

It is important to have the white ant situation examined by a professional pest controller to look at the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later onor locations cannot be treated due to access problems, the white ants will identify the gaps and gain access through those areas.

The regularly commonly applied repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t detected by termites, and thus the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants are killed, and may transfer the chemical on to other colony members, thus resulting in a flow on effect.

Because termites are unable to detect 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.

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

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are employed to eliminate termites from the home by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. The worker termites then feed the bait to other individuals in the nest which results in a compounding result.

An entire termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in cases where the position of the colony is unknown. It is important to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved to make sure they are in locations where there is termite activity.

While In Ground Systems can be utilised in a similar manner, they are more commonly placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. Systems such as these are particularly useful when the home design is such that an effective perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Benefits OF Termite Baiting
