Termite Control Airds

In Australia it is common for termites to be referred to as ‘white ants’. These are insect pests that can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Airds annually, making termite control so essential.

Termite Control & Protection

There are several treatments possible and each one has its benefits and draw backs. Two main strategies are commonly utilised for termite management in Airds; either the creation of a termite barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Call us today for more details about the price for termite treatment and management.

In Airds, chemical treatments are the more frequently applied management strategy to kill termites. However, interception and baiting for colony eradication has its’ advantages that should not be ignored.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals provide good protection from termites since they are easily identified and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, when there’s a break in the chemical, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may recognise the gaps and gain access.

The widely used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, which has a residual lifetime of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

Non-repellents are chemicals that termites don’t detect. Given they then do not avoid them, they will pass through the residue and then die. Additionally, individual white ants may often transfer these chemicals to other members in the colony, generating a compounding and efficient result.

Since termites cannot detect non-repellents, they are not able to tell the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is much less likely.

Fipronil is a widely used non repellent available today, and features a residual life of up to eight years.

Understanding Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the residence by positioning bait stations at the site of white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they were attacking. This soon kills those termites that ingest the bait, and there is also a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow colony members.

In this way, the entire nest may be eliminated even when the position of the nest is not known. The stations should be assessed and monitored frequently in case the situation should call for stations to be rebaited, the placement of new bait stations, or if they should be moved.

In-Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly important when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems
