I have been using this business for pest control for number of years after having a number of other pest control companies failing to ensure unwanted inserts and spiders were not around our place. They seem to have the environmental toxic free products and satisfy the pest problem and it seems to last the year. Highly recommend this business would not consider another pest business. Valued customer.

Real Estate Property Manager. Prior to the introduction I had used other companies who did not offer the same professional service I attained from these guys. No job was too small or too big and they were always contactable and were able to attend to the job quickly. The quality of their service and the work performed is second to none. I have used the company for my own family needs as well and I will never again use another company for my pest control needs.

Prevention & Extermination Against Termites

Termites are known in Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge levels of damage to properties in Canterbury each year, creating a strong requirement for termite prevention.

Termite Removal/Protection Strategies

There are several treatments possible and each has its benefits and limitations. Two main strategies are commonly used for termite management in Canterbury; either the production of a white ant barrier between the structure and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony through baiting. Contact us today for additional information on the cost for termite treatment and management.

Typically, in Canterbury, termite specialists use a chemical treatment as the preferred type removal strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some distinct benefits and should also be considered.

It is vital to call in a specialist termite exterminator to visit your home and evaluate the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and strongy avoided, they provide excellent protection in treated areas. However, if not all locations can be reached, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can recognise the gaps and gain access through them.

The often commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, termites will pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a compounding effect.

As termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they see no distinction between areas that are treated and those that are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of up to 8 years.

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. They are a reliable and effective company who I won't hesitate to call again! Highly recommend.

Andrew the owner who is quite the comedian sent out Adam the exterminator to do general pest control and rodent control on my property and my two neighbors in January on the same day. Adam did a great job taking his time to do the job properly. No more nasty roaches and no more rodents. They charge the best price and they get the job done properly. Try them and you wont be disappointed. Highly recommend!!!
Antonia Badrov
These guys have to be the best on the market with competitive prices and fantastic attention to detail. I recently used them for both my house and my parents house for general pest control and I can honestly say I regret not using them sooner. The results speak for themselves very professional, on time and very thorough. No place for the bugs to hide with these guys!!

Baiting Systems For Termites

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed on the bait matrix rather than the wood they were eating until recently. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

A whole termite nest or colony may be eliminated in this way, even in instances where the position of the nest is not known. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved so they continue to be in locations where there is termite activity.

In Ground Baiting Systems are often installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are especially useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can detect and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Baiting System Benefits

  • Very flexible & efficient termite protection system
  • Poor weather does not impact control
  • No danger to children or pets
  • Eco-friendly

How To Identify If Your House Is Infested With Termites

There are many signs your house suffers from a termite infestation:

  • Timber in the building has small holes
  • Timber is decaying or damaged
  • ‘Mud Tubes’ on the wood, floorboards, ceilings, brick work and in subfloor areas
  • Colonys or mounds in trees
  • Winged termites (or alates) can be seen swarming from the colony

What Destruction Can Termites Do?

When left untreated, even just one colony of white ants can do an unexpected amount of damage. The building can even become unsafe because of the severity of the issue, and in the extreme, can be unrepairable. Chat with Canterbury Termite Pest Control right now to organise a thorough evaluation of your Canterbury property by our termite prevention experts.

Ben is an absolute gentleman. Extremely polite and courteous and was very thorough in his work. He even took the time to explain different aspects of his job and the various insects and how he gets rid of them. Absolute champion. Hoping this will be the start of a long relationship with Andrew and his team. Cheers.
Joseph Messiha
I had Benjamin come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!

A termite problem can quickly turn into an expensive disaster, fortunately our technicians can do a termite inspection and come up with a plan to exterminate the termites ASAP.

Extremely happy with the services provided, we had a very knowledgeable technician Sean came to attend to the possum issue in our townhouse, Sean found the openings where the possums came in on the roof right away and patched them up. When the previous pest control company failed to do. But being a two level building with a separated garage roof, it was very difficult to trap the possums still inside, but Andrew the boss and Sean kept trying and finally got the problem all solved. Friendly to talk to and easy to work with so Highly recommended.
