Protection & Prevention Against Termites

Termites, also known as white ants, are a common sight around Australia. When they infest a residence, termites can rapidly cause a considerable amount of damage, making it important to call your trusted Croydon termite protection provider.

Termite Removal & Prevention

You can find various kinds of termite situations so the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the pros, they will likely to apply one of two general termite removal systems. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

For the most part, chemical remedies the most commonly used management strategy for termite treatment in Croydon. However, there are several advantages to interception and baiting that should be considered as well.

It is important to first have a professional white ant exterminator visit the home to evaluate the situation.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for providing protection on treated locations. However, if the treated places aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, then termites can identify these gaps and once again access the house.

Bifenthrin has a residual lifetime of up to five years and is the most widely used chemical repellent currently available.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they don’t avoid the treated areas, and thus die after exposure to them. In addition, individual termites can pass the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell apart treated locations to non-treated places, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is much lower.

The frequently used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual lifespan of up to eight years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites within a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the timber that they were infesting up to now. As well as killing the termites that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the nest can be eliminated even when the position of the nest isn’t known. The stations should be monitored and assessed regularly in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the placement of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to alternate location.

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 especially important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.
