Termite Prevention & Treatment

White ant or termite infestations are quite common around Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many residences in Lakemba annually. That is why termite prevention and treatment is extremely important.

Removing & Managing Termites

Termite treatments vary with regards to their goals and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are 2 major termite management strategies; attempting to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which try to make a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Give us a call today for additional information on the cost of termite preventions.

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

It’s important to first get a specialist termite exterminator come out to the home to fully assess the situation.

Effective Treatment for Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites can find these chemicals easy to identify and a strong deterrent, making them ideal for offering great protection to all treated locations. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are treated, white ants can identify the gaps and could sometimes get in.

The often widely used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These are chemicals that termites cannot detect. Given they then don’t avoid them, they go through the residue and die. Additionally, individual termites will also pass the chemicals to other members in the colony, creating a flow on and efficient effect.

Since the termites do not identify non-repellents, they do not recognise the difference between treated and untreated places, and thus access via possible gaps is reduced.

A widely used non-repellent is Fipronil, which has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are frequently used to eliminate termites in the property, by locating bait stations directly on termite activity to encourage the termites to feed on the bait as opposed to the structure. Also, when worker termites return to the colony, they transfer the bait to other members of the colony, creating a compounding effect.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even though 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 termites before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Flexible protection system
• Unaffected by weather
• Safe for use around kids and pets
• Ecologically smart
