Termite Treatment & Protection

In Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny pests can cause a massive amount of property damage each year. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Sefton are advised to find reliable termite control services.

Termite Removal

Termite treatments change in terms of their goals 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 try to create a barrier in between the termites and the building to be protected. Give us a call today for additional info on the price of termite controls.

Typically, in Sefton, termite specialists make use of a chemical treatment as the preferred method management strategy for killing termites, however, colony elimination through baiting also has some specific benefits and should be considered.

It is vital to have the white ant situation checked out by a professional pest controller to look at the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them great for providing protection around treated places. However, in the event the treated areas are not completely covered, or if they later get compromised, white ants can detect these gaps and again access the house.

Bifenthrin is the regularly used chemical repellent, having a residual life span of as much as 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent treatments are not detected by termites, and so they won’t steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, termites pass through the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Individual termites pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to detect these non repellents, they identify no difference between areas which are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The regularly used non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to eight years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your residence by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and thus enticing the white ants to eat a poison bait instead of the timber. The worker termites then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a flow on result.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed white ant activity. In this manner, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are generally installed around the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a residence may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Advantages Of A Termite Baiting System

• Flexible protection against white ants
• Impervious to weather conditions
• Safe for use around children and pets
• An environmentally smart solution
