Control & Removal Against Termites

In Australia it is common for termites to be called ‘white ants’. These are insect pests which can cause extensive damage to structures and residences in Grasmere every year, making termite control so important.

Termite Removal/Management Strategies

There are numerous potential treatments for termites, so let’s take a look at them briefly. There are two main strategies conducted for termite pest control: one is the total eradication of the colony via baiting, and next is using chemical treatment to make a barrier between the home and the termites. Call us today to find out more on the costs involved with the various treatment options.

White ant control in Grasmere residences traditionally uses a chemical treatment for eliminating the termites, however, interception and baiting to kill the termite colonys may have some distinct advantages that can not be ignored.

It is important to first get a professional white ant exterminator come out to the building to look at the damage.

Chemical Treatment Against Termites

Repelling Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer good protection from termites because they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a gap in the chemical application, either due to a lack of access to all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites may identify these gaps and gain access.

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

Non Repelling Chemicals

Termites cannot identify these repellents. Consequently, they don’t avoid the treated places, and as a result die after they have exposure to them. In addition, termites will pass the chemical on to other colony members, causing a compounding result.

Because the termites don’t identify non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell treated from untreated locations, and are much less likely to gain access through gaps.

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

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to remove termites from your house by putting attractive bait stations directly on the sites of termite activity and therefore encouraging the termites to eat a poison bait rather than the structure. These termites will then pass on the bait to other members of the colony which creates a flow on effect.

An entire nest can be destroyed in this fashion, regardless of whether the position of the nest is known or not. The area should continue to be regularly monitored so that if needed, stations can be rebaited or moved, or more can be added, depending on the activity.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, however they’re frequently installed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a pending termite problem. Systems such as these are useful when the construction of the building may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can block termites before they breach the boundary.

Advantages Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Poor weather does not impact effectiveness
• No danger to kids or pets
• Environmentally friendly

How To Identify If Your Property Is Infested With Termites

Typical signs that your home has a termite infestation:

• Holes in timber panels or drywall
• Timber is decaying or damaged
• The presence of mud tubes on the brickwork, ceilings, floor boards and/or subfloor areas of the building
• Trees in the area show signs of colonys & mounds
• Alates (winged termites) swarming from the nest

How Problematic Are Termites?

When left untreated, even just one colony of white ants can do a surprising amount of damage. The structure can even become unlivable due to the severity of the infestation, and in the extreme, may be irreparable.
