Cure For Termite Infestation

across the country it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Drummoyne annually, making termite prevention so essential.

Termite Control & Protection

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily sensed by termites / white ants, making them great for providing protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they are later compromised, white ants can identify these gaps and once again access the property.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years following application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after they have exposure to them. Additionally, individual termites can pass the chemical on to other colony members, creating a flow on effect.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated places to non-treated locations, the potential of termite ingress through untreated gaps is far lower.

Fipronil is the most commonly used non-repellent on the market, and features a residual lifetime of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then return to the colony and feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the whole colony may be eliminated even when the location of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be assessed and monitored regularly in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

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

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact control
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Ecologically Smart
