Extermination & Control Against Termites

Termites are known throughout Australia as ‘white ants’. These frequent household pests create huge amounts of damage to properties across Alfords Point each year, creating a large need for termite extermination.

Termite Control & Protection

Termite treatments vary with regards to their aims and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are two main termite management strategies; attempting to eliminate the termite colony with baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Call us today for additional information on the cost of termite exterminations.

Chemical treatments are the more typical strategy to kill white ants in Alfords Point homes. Remember, intercepting and baiting to eradicate the colony also has some distinct benefits which cannot be forgotten.

It’s wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator visit the building to fully look at the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good defense against termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin features a residual life of up to 5 years and is a widely used chemical repellent on the market today.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot detect these repellents. Consequently, they do not avoid the treated places, and thus are killed after contact with them. Additionally, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, causing a flow on result.

Because termites can’t tell the difference between treated places to non-treated places, the possibility for termite ingress through non-treated gaps is lower.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are regularly used to get rid of termites in the property, by placing bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the white ants to feed on the bait rather than the structure. In addition, when these termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other colony members, thus causing a compounding result.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even if 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.

An In-Ground System is used in a similar way, however they’re usually installed around the property to create an early warning system for signs of a pending termite infestation. These systems are useful when the construction of the structure can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.

Benefits of Termite Baiting Systems

• Adaptable protection against termites
• Not influenced by weather conditions
• No danger to children & pets
• Environmentally Friendly

Common Signs That You May Have Termites

• Holes in the drywall and/or timber
• Wood that is damaged or decaying
• The presence of mud tubes on brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the house
• Nests or mounds below trees

How Destructive Can Termites Be?
