Solution For Termite Infestation

In Australia, termites are often referred to as ‘white ants’. These tiny insects can cause a significant amount of property damage each year. Because of the great capacity for destruction, residents of Sandy Point are advised to seek reliable termite protection services.

Termite Removal & Prevention

Termite treatments change regarding their goals and application, each with their own limitations, benefits and differences. There are two main termite management strategies; trying to eliminate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to create a barrier in between the termites and the building being protected. Phone us today for additional info on the cost of termite protections.

Chemical treatments are the more traditional treatment to get rid of white ants in Sandy Point homes. However, intercepting and baiting to exterminate the colony also has some distinct advantages that should not be ignored.

It’s wise to first have a specialist white ant exterminator come out to the home to fully assess the damage.

If you feel that your residence or building is under threat from insect invasion, don’t panic. Phone us to get the help of the most experienced termite protection team covering the Sandy Point area. We will help you to make a well informed decision about this important service, and offer you a competitive price for treatment.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there is 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 identify these gaps and gain entry.

The most commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, that includes a residual effectiveness of as much as five years.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

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

Because termites don’t detect non repellents, they will not recognise the difference between untreated and treated locations, and therefore access via possible gaps is limited.

The most frequently used non-repellent is Fipronil, with a residual life as high as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a house, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the white ants feed upon the bait matrix rather than the structures that they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed that bait to other colony members.

In this way, the whole termite nest will 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.

An In Ground System is employed in a similar manner, however they are usually situated around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a termite problem. These systems are useful when the construction of the house can prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the perimeter.
