Termite Protection & Treatment

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

Removing & Managing Termites

There are many potential treatments for termites, so let us look at them briefly. There are two main strategies performed for termite control: first is the total eradication of the colony through baiting, and next is using chemical treatments to produce a barrier between the home and the white ants. Call us today for additional information about the costs associated with the various treatment options.

Termite prevention in Summer Hill homes traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, baiting and interception to kill the termite colonys may have some definate advantages that cannot be ignored.

It is wise to first get a specialist white ant exterminator visit the property to fully look at the damage.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide great protection from termites as they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain entry.

Bifenthrin has a residual life of as many as 5 years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Since they then don’t avoid them, they will move through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants will also transfer the chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient effect.

Because termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and the ones which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

A frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life as high as 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are utilised to eliminate termites from your property by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore tempting the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the structure. These termites then pass on the bait to other individuals in the colony which results in a flow on effect.

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

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Not impacted by weather
• Safe for all the family including pets
• An environmentally smart solution

Common Warning Signs You Have A Termite Infestation

These are the signs you have a termite infestation:

• Timber in the dwelling has tiny holes
• Timber is decaying or damaged
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Termite colonys & mounds in trees close to the structure
• Winged termites (or alates) can be seen leaving the nest

Can A Colony Of Termites Really Damage My Dwelling?

It surprises many people to learn that white ants can do a great deal of harm to buildings. In fact, a single colony of termites can render a dwelling unsafe if the problem is severe enough.
