Pest Control & Treatment Against Termites

Termite or white ant infestations are quite common in Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many structures in Smithfield each year. That is why termite pest control and treatment is extremely important.

Termite Control/Protection Processes

There are various types of termite infestations therefore the preferred treatments also vary. When you call in the professionals, they will likely to apply one of two general termite management processes. This might include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you want to protect. Or perhaps, the extermination of the termite colony with baiting techniques.

In Smithfield, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill termites. However, baiting and interception for colony eradication has its’ benefits that shouldn’t be dismissed.

It is wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator come out to the property to fully look at the damage.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are useful for protecting locations because termites quickly identify and strongly avoid them. If treated areas are compromised later onor some locations can’t be treated due to access difficulties, then white ants may identify the gaps and attain ingress via those areas.

The commonly used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. In addition, individual white ants can often pass these chemicals to other members of the colony, generating a flow on and efficient effect.

Because termites don’t identify non repellents, they do not recognise treated and untreated places, and therefore access through possible gaps is reduced.

The most applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, which has a residual life of as much as eight years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix rather than the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this way, the entire termite nest can be erradicated, even if you don’t know the actual location of the colony. 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.

While In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, they are typically placed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are particularly useful where the building design means that a robust perimeter barrier is difficult to install.

Advantages OF Termite Baiting

• Termite protection system is flexible
• Not impacted by weather
• No danger to children & pets
• Environmentally Friendly

Common Warning Signs Of A Termite Infestation

Several signs that you might have a termite problem include:

• Small holes in the drywall or wood
• Wood which is damaged and collapsing
• Presence of ‘mud tubes’ on the floor, brickwork, ceilings or below the floor
• Colonys or mounds below trees
• Winged termites (alates) can be seen flying to and from the colony

What Damage Can Termites Do?

If left untreated, even just one nest of white ants are capable of doing an unexpected amount of destruction. The building may even become unusable due to the severity of the problem, and in extreme cases, can be irreparable.
