Termite Protection & Treatment

In Australia, termites are frequently referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a massive level of property damage annually. Because of their great capacity for destruction, residents of Menai are encouraged to find quality termite control services.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments change regarding their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to exterminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to produce a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected. Give us a call today to learn more about the cost of termite controls.

Chemical treatments are a more traditional treatment to eliminate termites in Menai homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct advantages which cannot be ignored.

It is important to have the termite situation examined by a professional pest controller to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, which makes them perfect for offering great protection to all treated areas. Unfotunately however, when areas are compromised later on, or if access is an issue and not all areas are covered, termites can identify these gaps and can sometimes gain access.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of as many as 5 years after application.

Non Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not sensed by termites, and therefore the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites are killed, and will pass the chemical on to other members of the colony, therefore causing a compounding result.

Since the termites do not identify non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

The frequently used non-repellent treatment is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as many as 8 years following application.

Termite Baiting Systems

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

In this way, the whole termite nest can be exterminated, even when you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems can 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 vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Highly flexible & efficient termite protection system
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Ecologically sound

Signs You Are Dealing With Termite Infestation

There are several signs your home suffers from a termite infestation:

• Wood in the home has holes
• Wood is crumbling or damaged
• Presence of mud tubes on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or under the floor
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the colony

How Destructive Can Termites Be?

For such tiny individuals, a colony of termites (white ants) are capable of doing a great deal of damage to a building. If the problem becomes severe enough, your structure could become unsafe.
