Treatment For Termite Infestation

Termites are known across Australia as ‘white ants’. These regular household pests create huge amounts of damage to properties throughout South West Sydney on a yearly basis, creating a strong requirement for termite protection.

Termite Removal

There are various kinds of termite infestations and hence the best treatments also vary. When you call in the experts, they are likely to apply one of two general termite management systems. This could include chemical treatments that form a barrier between the termites and the building you wish to protect. Or perhaps, the elimination of the white ant colony with baiting techniques.

Generally, in South West Sydney, termite experts use 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 important to bring in a professional termite exterminator to check out your home and assess the damage.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are ideal for protecting areas because termites quickly identify and choose to avoid them. However, if treated areas are compromised later or locations can not be treated due to access difficulties, the white ants can detect those breaks and gain access via them.

The often commonly used repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are not detectable by the termites. Since they don’t avoid the chemical, they pass over the chemical and die after coming into contact with it. They often also pass the chemical on to other colony members that they come into contact with, thus creating a compounding effect.

Because the termites can not detect non repellent chemicals, they cannot tell treated from untreated areas, and are less likely to gain access via breaks.

The regularly applied non repellent chemical is Fipronil, this has a residual life of up to 8 years.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

Used to erradicate termites in a residence, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so that the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures that they have been eating up to now. As well as killing the white ants that eat the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites then feed that bait to further colony members.

In this way, the whole termite colony will be eliminated, even though you do not 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 can be used in a similar way, they are typically installed around the property to offer an early warning and interception system. These systems are especially useful where the building design means that an effective perimeter barrier is hard to install.
