Termite Control & Extermination

White ant or termite infestations are quite frequent in Australia. Termites are responsible for causing significant damage to many properties in Minto each year. That’s why termite control and extermination is very important.

Managing & Removing Termites

There are a number of treatments possible and each has its advantages and draw backs. Two main strategies are typically employed for termite management in Minto; either the production of a white ant barrier between the house and the termites, or eradication of the termite colony with baiting. Call us today for more info about the price for termite management and treatment.

Chemical remedies are the more standard strategy to kill white ants in Minto homes. However, intercepting and baiting to eliminate the colony also has some distinct benefits which cannot be forgotten.

It is essential to have your termite situation checked out by a professional bug exterminator to look at the damage and suggest a suitable management plan.

Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Termites find chemicals easy to detect and a strong deterrent, which makes them ideal for offering good protection to all treated areas. However, if areas are compromised later on, or if access is a problem and not all areas are covered, white ants will recognise the gaps and can potentially get in.

The most widely used repellent is Bifenthrinthat features a residual life of up to five years following application.

Non-Repellent Chemicals

Non repellent chemicals are not identified by termites, and they will not stay away from the treated areas. Because of this, termites will go over the chemical and die as a result of exposure to it. Also, individual termites will transfer the chemical onto other colony members, resulting in a flow on result.

As termites are unable to identify these non repellents, they find no distinction between areas which are treated and others which are not, so there is likely to be less ingress through gaps.

The commonly used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a lasting effect of up to eight years following application.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from homes by positioning 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 feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

Continuing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on the observed pest activity. In this manner, the entire nest can be elimited even if its location is unknown.

In Ground Systems are used in a similar manner, however they are often installed around properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to aid in early detection of termites. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a swelling will make it difficult to have adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
