Removal & Extermination Against Termites

White ant or termite infestations are rather frequent around Australia. They are responsible for causing significant damage to many houses in Bangor South West Sydney each year. That is why termite removal and inspection is so important.

Termite Control & Protection

Termite treatments alter in terms of 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 that try to make a barrier between the termites and the structure being protected. Phone us today for additional information on the cost of termite removals.

Chemical treatments are a more traditional treatment to eliminate white ants in Bangor homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has distinct advantages which should not be forgotten.

It is necessary to have your white ant situation examined by a professional pest controller to evaluate the damage and advise a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are easily detected by termites and avoided, they provide excellent protection in treated areas. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated areas become compromised, termites can identify the gaps and get access through them.

The most frequently used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which features a residual life of as much as five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Because of this, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus are killed after contact with them. Additionally, termites can transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to detect these non-repellents, they see no difference between areas that are treated and those which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

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

Termite Baiting Systems

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

A whole termite nest or colony can be eliminated in this manner, even in situations where the position of the colony is unknown. It is essential to monitor and assess these stations regularly so that they can be added to, re-baited or moved in order that they are in places where there is termite activity.

In-Ground Baiting Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly invaluable when the design of the building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.
